Hen or roo? Light brahma 6 weeks old

[GuardOfHippoMountain]

All three were from Tractor Supply on May 3rd. They were larger then than my other we got. I think they were older by at least a week.
June is #3. Super sweet and social. Some think cockerel.
Jolene is #2. She has watched June love me and now likes the attention too.
Brandy is #1. She is a spaz and super skittish.

I think she is at least 7-8 wks old in that pic.

It's been 5 weeks since May 3rd but regardless that's for sure a cockerel with how red that comb is. I'd say the same if they were 7-8 weeks old.

I think these picture confirm June is a cockerel. You can see it as well with how June has wattle growth but Jolene and Brandy don't (both are likely pullets).

The chick wasn’t a new born at May 3rd. It was quite a bit bigger than the other babies I had picked up.

Seeing the new pictures, I think june is a cockerel. I have a beardless silkie rooster Fernando who started showing wattles at 5 1/2 weeks, and starting from 6 week old it EXPLODED in growth! I swear he was growing 1/8 of an inch of wattles a day it was insane. Within 2 weeks he had massive wattles that flop around lol. you should know for sure next week if he gets floppy wattles.

I have 6 silkies of unknown gender. One was maybe two days old when I got him. Very young. The rest were at least a week or two old. The baby is 6 wks old now. I keep thinking it’s a he. I actually do not know. None of the silkies are being obvious about being a roo. I do not need more roosters though. I didn’t want any and it seems I may have 3-4. I was going to get a super sweet 2 year old Wyandotte from a friend. But I don’t think I can now.

Your silkie is very nice looking though. Are you finding your silkies to be kinda ditsy and skittish? Mine seem to be. Only one brave one in the lot.
