Howdy everyone! I’m a new chicken momma and was just curious if this pullet girl could possibly be a boy? I am having some motherly instincts that this chicken baby is different then our other 5 babies. They hatched March 21st, so she/he is 3.5 weeks old. Thank you!!

Thank you!! They are barnevelders! Here is a side by side with her/his sister! I noticed a major difference in lack of growth of tail and wing feathers!

Welcome!
So far ??? Revisit in two or three weeks. What breed?

Again, feather growth sexing only works if the chicks were specifically bred to display that trait, otherwise it's random. I can't really see these two chicks well enough in this picture to tell about any comb differences. A chick with a bigger more colored comb is likely to be a cockerel when compared to a sibling however. Is that the story here?
