Cochin Baby - boy or girl?

[Miranda2609]

Four weeks old. I am just not entirely sure with this one. The only cochin chick I kept from this hatching, so nothing to compare to. Does not look as developed as other Cochin Roosters were at this age, but I'm just not sure.

I'm leaning toward female but cochins can be slow to grow combs, you'll just have to wait to be positive.

No wattles. The two Cochin Roosters I've grown out, you could easily tell at 4-5 weeks. Their combs were large and RED! The second cockerel I grew out was the son of my blue cochin Rooster, so am not sure if I had two cockerels that were fast developing or not?

I'm saying pullet...

Here are more pictures of the comb. I want to say pullet too, I just can't believe that out of four cochins I kept and grew out all are pullets. No one has that good of luck!

 

[Miranda2609]

Oops, just realized baby is FIVE weeks not four! So really starting to lean towards pullet, but BOY was I lucky! I got all pullets and every color I wanted this year, and it's EARLY!
