My sister purchased 6 Buff Orpington pullets for her school and the hatchery threw in a surprise chick. We think we have nailed down the breed to be a Silver Sebright Bantam but are back and forth on the gender. We are both first-time chicken owners. (I started with 4 ISA Browns) What do you think on our breed guess? Pullet or Cockrel? They will be 6 weeks old this coming Tuesday.

Not a Sebright, but a Silver Spangled Hamburg. Pullet!
 
Pullet. Welcome to BYC! :welcome
Yay! Thank you so much!

I looked up that breed and you could certainly be correct. The feathering looks more similar to the Silver Spangled Hamburg than the Sebright. Super happy you think it's a pullet as well!
