I’ve had this baby for 3 weeks. I’ve never had this breed before but I’m going to assume with this color comb I’ve got myself a little Boy?

It's a bit young yet. If that comb turns red in a couple of weeks it's probably a male. Gold laced males will also feather out dark across the shoulders, where females will have lacing.

Thank you. I’ll keep watch. Other then the little bit on the wings this baby has no other feathers yet where as all the other babies I got the same day (different breeds) have lots of feathers coming in
 
Wyandottes are known to pink up early, but even so that is a lot of color for 3 weeks.
Wyandottes can also be really slow to feather. My wyandotte pullet took  forever to feather in. I swear all my other chicks were fully feathered and she was still half chick down!
