Help sexing Olive Egger chick..

[dreamerD]

Hi, all. I am in need of some help sexing a three week old Olive Egger. I'm hoping for a pullet. It may be too soon to tell?

Right now it looks like a pullet, could you get some better pictures though?

I'm still thinking pullet but I would post pictures as it grows to make sure.

Will do. Thanks!!

From what I've read (and seen in videos posted here) look at the comb, wattles and tail.

Red comb and wattles, arched tail with indistinct/pointed feathers = cockerel
Pink comb/wattles, straight tail distinct/rounded feathers = pullet

This is supposed to be consistent with all chickens.

I still don't see any obvious signs of it being a cockerel. As it grows it has a 3 row pea comb it is probably a cockerel but if it has one row then pullet. This rule isn't definite but it has always worked for me when it comes to sexing Easter Eggers and Olive Eggers.
