Buffy or Bruce? 7 week old Buff Brahma

[Nestew]

My Buff Brahma and I have been oh so patiently waiting until *hopefully* she gets to the 7 week mark to start the guessing game. I know it might be a little early still but also slightly worried about some roo-ish signs.
Grabbed quite few shots to provide the best angles possible.

That’s super encouraging! I can mostly tell by now with all the others but have no idea what to even look for with this Brahma.

I'm pretty confident it's a cockerel

Looking cockerelish to me... give it a couple more weeks and then post new pictures.

Well I guess the mystery continues. Will update with new pics next week.

Updating with a few new pics another week-ish older.
New thoughts or keep waiting?

He's a cockerel for sure

 

[Nestew]

Awe that’s a bummer. What is the clue? I keep studying pics of these and am not seeing how to tell.

At seven weeks old he had quite prominent wattles for a slow maturing breed and now at eight weeks he has a very prominent comb and wattles along with getting darker colored patches on the wings that will later turn into sex feathers. Here's two pics of a Brahma cockerel and then two pics of a Brahma pullet the same age. (This pullet has an unusually prominent comb.) The pullet's comb is wide but it's not "built up" like a cockerel's would be. She also lacks the wattles.
