Black Cochin Chick Gender

[TheRealGwynethPoultry]

Any black Cochin experts out there? This babe was hatched 3-9 (allegedly) so it’s still early, but I know black Cochins can show signs of gender pretty early. Any guesses?

Too early. Update once the chick is 6-8 weeks old.

If this doesn’t say rooster, I don’t know what does Jules is 4.5 weeks now!

Yup, unfortunately that's a cockerel.
