this is a six week old sultan that is starting to have some comb development. I am assuming that it is going to be a roo, could I be wrong? Do the pullets develope combs as well?
Thanks!
 
99% of chicken breeds have combs, both sexes. Granted males combs a typically much larger. Sultans are V-combed which is a slow developing type, same as in Polish. So you'll have to wait a little longer to know for sure. But being 6 weeks and no color to speak of yet in its comb is a good sign to be a pullet.
