Curious yalls thoughts on pullet or cockerel? I bought it around 3 weeks old from a local breeder, mom was mille fleur duccle, dad was black frizzle cochin rooster. It was the smallest of the group, like half the size of the others. It's very skiddish towards me but it's very fiesty. Really hoping it's a pullet especially with no comb growth or red, but it's fiesty personality and slow growing feathers has me thinking otherwise.







First picture at 3 weeks old, last two pics at 5 weeks old.

Looks good for a pullet but really too early to tell for sure. Things can change rapidly at that young age. I would post again in three weeks if it isn't clear by then.











The one with the red comb is from the same clutch. Think it's safe to say mine is a pullet?

I'm leaning towards pullet, but it's still a bit too early to tell.
 
Still pullet?
