Bantam cochin

[ThreeHens2]

This chick was hatched about a month ago. Hen or roo?

The chick is too young to accurately be sexed, around 6-8 weeks would allow for a more accurate reading.

That being said, that is quite a bit of comb and redness for a month old chick. I vote cockerel.

The comb on this one isn't especially developed, but it is quite red. These factors make me lean towards cockerel for now.

Little young to say for sure. Post pic in couple more weeks

looking like a cockerel to be at this point

So I decided to send out a dna test on this one to make sure before I got rid of it. It’s a girl!!!! I’m so relieved!

how many days does it take, how much does it cost? I read about $11 a while back but wondering if the price went down

Glad you have that resolved

It was like 19.50. I sent it in and when they receive it it takes 1-2 days for the results and then they email you. Very quick.
