My first impulse is pullet, but what age?

I believe I see male specific saddle feathers, so my vote is for cockerel.

Approx 18 weeks , came from a friend who had to move. I feel like it is a pullet also but the feathers are throwing me off.

Thanks that is why I am asking because of the saddle feathers, but the rest is telling me pullet lol. Do any hens get the longer saddle feathers ?

That is definitely a confusing one. Do you know the breed, or is it a mix?

Probably cockeral. The saddle feathers look like male but the comb and wattles look a little big for 18 weeks.

He could be older, it was given to me from a friend that moved , so that is an approximate.
