Help with this Barred Rock

[Wawa Coffee]

Any idea here on the sex? 6.5 weeks old.

By the barring, pullet

Looks like a cockerel to me.

The pink wattle at this age is what has me worried.

Males are mostly evenly barred. Females show alot more black showing less barring. From the picture seeing the back it's most likely a female, unless it's hiding it's stripes.
My barred rocks are about 6 weeks old too.

Below is the male.

Thanks - hope you're right!

That's a cockerel. It has cockerel barring, thick legs and a large red comb.

Are you sure that's the same bird in all the pictures?

Color seems like cockerel but comb and wattles definitely point to pullet.

That's kinda what I'm thinking. The first body shot has a very barred chest, like a male would, but the above shot of the back has limited barring like a female would.
Did you get them as day old chicks?

First picture is a male barred at almost three weeks and the bottom is a female bar. Even at three weeks my male has much more barring then your 6 week old chick.
