Australorp gender identity crisis

[NoCluckingIdea]

Hi all,

I’d love a second opinion on one of my chicks. I ordered a batch of pullets hatched on April 15, but my Black Australorp is looking very suspicious at just over 5 weeks old.
He/she has:
A noticeably larger, redder comb than the others

• Wattles starting to develop already
• Slower feathering than my other chicks (tail and wings)
• A bold, dominant personality—chasing and pecking at other chicks, and even biting at me
• Upright posture and thick legs

All of this is making me think my Dorothy may be a Daniel, but I wanted to get some more experienced eyes on it before making any decisions.
I’ve attached two photos taken today. I’d appreciate any feedback—especially from those familiar with Australorps and their development timing.





Thanks so much!
