Any Silver laced Wyandotte experts?

I have a three week old SLW have any of you had one this early have a small visible wattle and have it still be a hen? Or am I just being hopeful ?!

Also with a reddish comb area.

Of course this is the best picture I could get and it doesn't show the comb or wattle but maybe the coloring could help?!

I've had a lot of SLWs and it's been my experience the boys are much darker with more contrast between their black and white areas. The girls are rather muddy-colored compared to males. The males are overall more vivid. The combs do come in sooner on the boys. The boys are also more combative in their play.

There looks to be a tiny comb started but it's more yellow

Good chance that's a cockerel.
