HELP sexing my chick!

[WildCHILD400]

I have two new chickens, one is an isa brown (pullet) and the other a Red Cochin frizzle bantam. The drizzle is a straight run and I need some help sexing her. I will post a pick of the drizzle and the isa brown so you can compare a certified pullet to a straight run. The fuzzier smaller one is the straight run the big one is the pullet. I've also heard roosters combs get pinker sooner and girls stay orange longer is that true? Any thoughts or tips will help, thx.

It's very likely that the frizzle is a cockerel.

They Frizzle looks like it would be a cockerel, but I am not one hundred percent sure. It's sometimes hard to tell with younger chicks, but the frizzle should be a cockerel.

Thx for responding so quick but Just for future reference what makes you think that

What age do they start crowing

 

[Lavender Ro]

They usually start crowing about 4 to 5 months.

I would need to know age of bird in question and see pics in natural lighting.

That comb is pretty pink if that bird is 8 weeks or younger I do say male.

Also, I don't actually see a frizzle in your pictures. It's possible that the cochin had a frizzled parent, but it itself is not frizzled.

I can get some better pics the chick is about 7 weeks. It's comb is mainly orange with slight pink on base of comb. It's interesting you said she may have only had a frizzle parent I also noticed its feathers weren't to crazy like other pics I've seen. My is a brown also has her comb and she's a week yoinger than the frizzle.
