Bantam buff Brahma 7 weeks old gender

[Sutherlandfarms]

this is Lloyd he is 7 weeks old from TSC bantam bin! He has a three row pea comb, beginning to turn red, with one large row in the middle and two smaller but still noticeable rows along the sides. I included a side profile pic for his coloring. His tail is beginning to show green iridescence. Is this a roo?

With the comb I’d say yes,give him another three weeks and some male feathers should show.

That’s what I was figuring! I’ll be rehoming him in a few weeks then

Looks like a cockerel to me. The comb has some color and the shoulders are darker than the rest of the body. But it is definitely worth waiting a few weeks to be sure, one way or the other.

Actually you can still keep him,during his teen months you may can Seperate him.Nit all roosters are tough and super hormonal,but through the teen months mine most are.And even then he might not be so bad,how many hens do you have?

Unsure but possibly around 9

Nine is a good ratio,do you already have a rooster?
