Could this be a Rooster or a Hen?

[abw67]

Can anyone tell yet if this is a Roo or Hen. Almost 4 weeks old and has a light pink comb. If you can tell please share what features give the clues. Thanks

i think it could be a cockerel because i have a chick that is now around 3-4 months old and her comb is about the same size so im guessing your chick would most likely be a cockerel

It's a roo, and not just because of the comb.

Can you share what other features you see. I'm trying to become an expert too

Rooster. The upright stance of the chick and the little red wattles are also good indicators.

roosters get there tail feathers later then hens. there legs are thicker then hens, and they have an upright posture. a few others are red combs/wattles, saddle feathers, (sometimes) different colors/patterns.

I would have guessed it was a pullet....

Here are some updates of Snowdrop at 5 1/2 weeks. Does this look like a rooster or hen?

Well, with no more redness in the comb, I've changed my mind to pullet. Looks can be deceiving at first. What breed is she?

I sure hope you are right

She is a White Leghorn.
