This thread came at a great time! My chicks are about 6 weeks. Pickle here was supposed to be a pullet, but I'm thinking probably not.

Glad my thread helped you.

Great comparison thanks, is it normal for the hen to be above the cockerel in pecking order, my hen seems to boss my cockerel around at this age a lot!

Does anyone know if you can base a buff rocks sex this way? I post last week asking for help identifying my 2 chicks breed and it seems like they may be buff rocks. I plan to post them again in a week but as of now they definitely favor the pulled in this picture
