BA possible cockeral?

It's a pullet - I don't see any roo signs at all on this chicken - small comb/wattles, curved feathers.

My 2 BA cockerels were also easily identified as boys by about a month old.
This one here is about 7-8 weeks old - obviously boy:

This is my pullet at 12 weeks old - had me wondering because of the large wattles, but she's laying now:

If you click here, you'll see another pic of an 8 week old BA roo and pics of my pullet at ages 11, 12 15, & 23 weeks of age.

those last pictures that you posted of the bird... look girlie! Ok, I am changing my mind ( a woman's prerogative ya know!)

It's a girl! Pullet.

Thank you so much for the pictures!!!! They really help, plus I read all the posts on your link and those helped too. Sounds like I should give them a little more time then to make sure they are really boys (I have two other BA in question). Hubby says no roos so he's anxious to find out what gender they are.
 
I have 4 12 week old d'Uccle roos right now.. and they have red waddles and combs and have been crowing for a few weeks.
Maybe, just maybe, that IS a pullet.
 
I agree with girls also. I have two BA and one had about three curved tail feathers for a while at about the age your chicken is. By 18 weeks those feathers fell out and she no longer has them. Just a hen looking rear end now.
