Help With Sexing Light Brahma

[Chebird]

This a "Becky" a twelve week old Light Brahma. What I am most concerned with are those pesky little saddle feathers underneath her feathers in back of her tail, and her legs are bigger than my two other known (EE) cockerels. There has been no crowing or roo behavior. Do I have a Becky or a Beck? Thanks for your help!!! I am addicted to not only chickens but this site!

Cockerel.

 

[Chebird]

Oh goody. He's been a very good boy so far; kind of wants to be invisible. Thanks for your reply!

 

[Chebird]

Does everyone else agree? Is it that obvious?

Agreed, Cockerel. If you're just now looking for saddle pin feathers, and the comb is that large? I'm guessing he's about 9 weeks... and if that's the case, that comb says it all.

No doubt that's a cockerel.
