Gender of my little golden laced cochin please?

Seems to be at the top of the pecking order too! Roo or pullet!

How old? Looks like a cockerel to me.

Hi, almost an 8 week old bantam. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your help leadwolf! We think he'll be rather handsome too! We looked over a lot of images of golden laced cochins and it just seemed on the roosters their neck feathers would all be almost a solid golden color where his are more black. So we were not for sure. Thanks again for your help!

Feathering or not, at 8 weeks the comb and wattles tell the tale. I agree, he'll be stunning!

His feathering color will change as he gets older....
