Too young. Feather sexing is a tricky topic, but needs to be a specific cross and is all together not a very reliable way to sex ALL birds.

Post updated pictures at 6-8 weeks of age, with pictures of the comb and side profile.

Never tried before, so I cannot say from experience.

Feather sexing won’t worth. Vent sexing is dangerous. Anything else other than autosexing breeds can’t easily be sexed around hatch.

You'll need to post pics focusing on combs and wattles, at around 6-8 weeks of age.
