EE sexing 4 weeks

[CayugaMama]

This is my 4 week old Bantam EE, Jolene. I am pretty sure “she” is a cockerel. What do you think?

"She" is a cockerel for sure! Normally pullets don't develop a red comb until around 14 weeks or later (someone correct me if I'm wrong. Haven't been on here in a while). If they have a red comb this early then they are for sure a cockerel

Oh BOY that's a bright red comb , I say it's a cockerel especially being so young , here's a pic of my EE pullet at 17 weeks.

I'd guess your Jolene is more of a Joe as well.

I'll have to look it up not one I've heard of , i just know some eggs were dark brown ,light brown,cream and light green, when I bought the eggs I didn't even think to ask what breeds the lady had . I just figured she had maran mix in her since some had feather legs and some didn't makes me wonder about the one that came from the green egg now , this four are the ones I kept from my hatch
