Gender- 12 week old olive egger

[WillowTreeHugger]

This chicken is throwing us for a loop. The comb filled in and turned red early on, but hasn’t grown much for several weeks. Plus at 12 weeks there has been no crowing, no obvious saddle feathers, and acting no bossier than any of my other feisty pullets. I’ve been able to tell with our other chicks much sooner than 12 weeks, but we go back and forth with this one.

Looks like a Blue Laced Red Wyandotte cockerel.

His/her father is a blue laced red Wyandotte and mother is an olive egger

Look like a Roo (tail feathers), don't see no saddle/hackle feathering, comb/wattle lots of red so going with the rest, you got a Cockerel ... Pretty bird.

Cockerel

Cockerel. There is a darker red over the wingbows and if you look close at the first picture there are 2 pointed saddle feathers in. Handsome boy

Cockerel. I can just see the saddle feathers starting to come in on the right side in that overhead shot.
