First time bantam/d’uccle keeper

Hi all, I’ve learned a lot about sexing, but since each breed has its nuances I was wondering if my little D’uccle is looking good for a pullet to you all. I saw a thread where someone mentioned their Mille fleur looked to be a cockerel based on pattern and mine looked almost identical, but the post was old. “She’s” a sweetheart. Purchased at a feed store, from Hoovers. Should be between 4-5 weeks old.

It's kind of in between. I'd give it another couple of weeks.

Thanks, I figured it was early. But I’ll keep an eye on “her”. I’m at cockerel capacity!

Pretty certain it's a pullet. D'uccle cockerels comb up early.

What did she end up being? I’d love to see an updated pic

She’s definitely a pullet and very sweet. She likes to follow us around the yard and is always jumping into our laps. I’m very fond of her!

She’s also in my profile pic!
