Hi im new to the chicken scene and grabbed 10 chicks for the backyard. One of them didn't make it but the rest are doing great. I ha e 1 though that has a bigger comb and seems to have more red in it than all the others. What do all you experts think? Lol

I am leaning towards cockerel. Hoping for an update…?

Seems like you might have a couple of imposters...

But if that's a pea comb on that bird then yeah that's probably a cockerel.

Hahahaha I was waiting for someone to see the ugly cousins hanging out. But yeah im leaning to male too.

The one in question looks to be male, already has three rows on a pea comb. Recommend posting each bird individually good side view in natural light though the other ones that I can see all appear to be female.

Same, but I recommend doing so in a few weeks. There still may be slower developing males
