It's a splash. My cockerels are always very slow to feather in around the butt. When they are 3-4 weeks all the pullets have tail feathers and the cockerels have ' blunt butts 'Gender guesses? 4 week old BLRW.
I know it's early, but the curiosity!!!! In the photo, those may look like saddles above the tail, but they are feathers just in and still sheathed. TIA!
this year's male... he's a bit dark but has the best body type
a couple of the girls in the breeding plan!
eggs are due to hatch on Easter Sunday... I can't wait!
The moulting look-
And the look her sister hen is giving her is priceless.

TIA for input, I love playing the cockerel or pullet game! Fun to watch and guess!! (I've learned so much of my breeds from fellow members!)
I seen pink in the comb, I vote Cockerel.
This is the best I could do! Fiesty little one!! There are no wattles. Just a pale, flat, line of soon to be wattle flesh.
I wouldn't mark him as a roo just yet, mine had wattles at two weeks. Wyandottes are crazy to try and sex apparently. If it's not blazing red and the wattles don't aggressively pop out.. Than maybe you have a pullet
No pics of wattles, as there is zero wattle development yet. Just a thin, pale, flat, line of soon to be wattle flesh.
Agreed. At this point it looks like a hen but could just be a slow developing Roo. This looks very similar to our splash hen.
