She is starting her 10th week....still not one pointy feather, her comb is still single row of peas and pale.
You seem to have a knack for picking hard to sex birds. I remember all the debate over your Wester a few years back. :lol:
I think it's safe to say that this bird is definitely a pullet. I was unsure at first, but as she feathered out she started looking more and more female.
 
I was wondering if these 2 chickens are hens.

My EE, New Chicken. Got her a couple years ago, never came up with an official name so she's just New Chicken. She's hard to catch, but comes to treats and is alright to hold.

Best way to tell on an all white bird is the comb. I would expect a male to be bright red at nine weeks. I couldn't tell from the pics what color the comb is. If someone can hold the bird, you can get a good close up. It would help.
