I'm thinking this chick may be a roo? Anyone with more experience want to chime in?

I could be wrong, but it appears to be a little cockerel, as I see no evidence of brown in the flights.

I think what you would look for is the black on the wing. Both sexes have it but the males have it a darker black and usually you can tell the difference at about 2 weeks I think.

Really? I figured it was a rooster because it's feather colors are so different from my other two SF pullets that I have.

I have 3 roosters and 3 hens. One of the hens I posted here with the roosters. She is much darker than my other two hens. Several people said she was a rooster, but I didn't really think so. She wasn't colored like the roosters. She was colored like a darker hen and yep ... she is a hen. I could be wrong, but yours looks like a pullet to me.

Cockerels look much different. For one thing they have a black chest, and yours definitely does not. Yours isn't even one of the questionable ones.
