do you think this is a roo? UPDATED!!!!!

i sure hope you all are right!!! i dont need more roosters, and i am friends with the owners of our feed store in town, so ill sell whatever roosters i dont want. i want to incubate some eggs and sell the chicks at the feed store too. It'd be so much fun. Theres no place to get chicks in town, you have to drive 30 miles for them.

ANYWHO, im rambling, im just so excited!
thanks everyone!
 
LADIES AND GENTLEMAN...

My chick crowed today!!! He is only 6-8 weeks. And i was holding his sister, and she was chirping, so he chirped back. Then he stuck his head straight up like they do and tried to cockadoodledoo. SOOOOO funny! He needs to go through puberty. But i WAS RIGHT! I thought by the size of the comb from his 4th week that he would be a rooster. Gawd he's cute. I may have to keep him.

So it is a little cockerel!

That's a bantam clean leg. Hmmmm, Mine are feathered leg. When I first saw it I thought pullet for sure. Then you showed the picture of the other bird with no comb at all. If they are from the same hatch that would be significant. Where did you get the chicks?
I have bantam cochins and at that age the little comb was a pullet. But then you show the comparison and It makes me question it. So maybe the clean leg bantam is differant.
