Any ideas for breed or gender??

[KatjaMK]

This is one of 12 I got from Meyer Hatchery's over hatch. It's the only one that looks like this. It is 4 weeks old. I'm thinking a rooster since its comb is so much more prominent than the others, but I have no guesses on breed. Any help would be appreciated.

Looks like a buff Orpington in my opinion because my friend has one that age that looks like it. Yes it is a rooster also. Are you going to keep it.

I thought it was a buff at first, but we have a dozen 3 week old buffs, and he doesn't look a thing like them. His feathers are very light ... Almost white. We will likely keep him .... He bullies some of the others on occasion. As long as he stops, we'll keep him.

Okay my other guess would be a golden sexlink

Definitely looks like a boy. Was he one of the 'extras' they included in the order? Could be a red sexlink, although I've never had a male. If it is a RSL he should start to get some darker/golden feathers on his head and back.

Cockerel. Probably a Red Sex-Link male or a White Plymouth Rock.

Agreed.
