Golden Laced Bantam Cochin is a pullet. Brahmas are slow to develop as stated by above posters, but if I had to give an opinion, I'd go with cockerel. Although there are no obvious signs to point to either gender, I see that its comb is already more pinkish and its stance in the last picture looks male. Its harder to sex brahmas by their combs also since they have pea combs though. Regardless of gender, cute chicks. :D

See... Brahmas. LOL I'd have to disagree with you on the comb. I think it doesn't look any different then my hens when they were that age... which is why I'm not touching this one for a while. LOL
