Help sexing pekin chick

[Lirachan13]

hi everyone,
I am getting a bit worried thinking my 11 week old pekin is a boy, shes quite red in the wattles and comb.

What does everyone think boy or girl? Im new to chicken sexing and would love some opinions, thanks in advance

11 weeks? Those are both cockerels.

Agreed, they’re both cockerels.

Oh no, i thought my frizzle was a girl. Shes a month older than the pekin

Still a male, unfortunately.

The one on the step isn’t a Pekin, he’s a mix/cross. The other is a frizzled Pekin though.

He’s nice. I wouldn’t had thought Silkie on first guess. I do like Silkie x Pekin hens. They can hatch more chicks than any incubator lol.

I agree, they both appear to be cockerels.

Some cochins are tricky. I found that in some cochin breeding lines, pullets have large combs. Here's my cochin pullet from this year near point of lay. She has a pretty large comb. So I wouldn't completely give up hope until you see male feathering.
