Bantam lavender ameraucana... male or female?

[Godiva]

This little one is 4 weeks old - these pics were taken a few days ago.... I am not familiar with the pea comb breeds - never had any and am not sure how early their combs start to show signs of being a roo or not. To me this one looks like a pullet, but that may just be wishful thinking... anyone who is familiar with these got thoughts on the sex of this chick?

I haven't been able to get a clearer pic than this because this is one busy, curious bird! Doesn't sit still for a moment until it tucks its head under its wing and goes to sleep.

I can't really tell sex from your picture, but in my own experience boys get 3 rows of peas. It doesn't look like your chick has that, so I'm gonna guess pullet. Good luck.

Yeah, it seems very feminine to me

Yup it looks like a pullet so far

Pullet. You can usually tell cockerels at this age by their combs getting quite pink.

Think it looks a little rooish, the comb is somewhat wide.

Ok, here is another pic I took today, will try to get a couple more close ups tomorrow and see if you still think the same.

Here is a profile shot - not sure if that is helpful...
