You calling me Rooster? I’m a good girl I am! I lay my own eggs and everything!

 

[StinkyAcres]

Oh.
But, a lot of my hens have huge combs, wattles, better spurs than the roosters, etc.

Yes, hens can have large combs, but I believe all cockerels at this age have larger and redder combs than the females.

Looks like a cockerel to me.

That one is definitely not a roster. Also definitely not 6 weeks old.

She’s not even a rooster.
Okay, okay, I get your point, sorry, I’ll go

As adults, yes many hens have those traits. But at age 6 weeks, pullets have small pale combs & wattles, even if they will have big red ones at maturity. The redness of the comb and wattles make me quite sure the bird in this thread is a male. A pullet could (rarely) have a comb that big at this age, but not a comb that red.

No, what I was trying to say was that you're not being very helpful here.
