veryone in my group seem to be developing pretty much the same but this little one seems to be getting a little more of a comb than the rest. She/He is approximately four weeks old. Any thoughts or opinions?
 
Four weeks is a little young but that one is already showing a comb and wattles. A side view showing legs and posture could help confirm it but right now I'd say there is a really high chance it is a cockerel. A pullet should nto be showing wattles at that age. Heavy legs compared to the others would also be a strong clue for a cockerel.
