Sorry for asking the breed when you wrote it in the title of the thread... didn't see that!

It's alright, it happens.

Look how many more feathers these Brahma chicks have than mine and they're supposed to be the same age:

Here is Anders now at 6 1/2 weeks. Definitely a cockerel?

I wouldn't say for sure a cock. I have a light brahma hen named RooRoo since I was sure she was a cock. She's been laying for 3 years now.

Just wanted to update. Here is Anders today at 8 weeks old.

Here is what the pullets look like today for comparison.

I will be selling Anders, so if anyone wants a big Brahma rooster send me a PM!

Anders has been sold! Hope the little guy has a good life protecting his new flock.
