Hey guys! Any idea whether this little beauty is a pullet or cockerel? It’s about 8-9 weeks old

Can you provide a full body picture from the side and a picture of the head straight on? It's hard to tell the color of the comb because of the way the light is hitting it. Just from this my initial guess would be pullet.

The comb is yellow, I’ll get more pics!

We need a full body photo. We need to be able to see the tail, hackle, and saddle feathers. However based on the comb, I would say pullet for now.

It's a Light Brahma. They can be very slow to develop, often not reliably sexable till about 14 or 15 weeks of age.

OR longer if there are a lot of roo's in the mix. At least in my experience. BUT other then having "drag chickens" I love my brahma's just wish they were a little more "cost effective"

I think that's a pullet!

The comb would be much darker by now to be a cockerel.

Not necessarily. Brahmas can be painfully slow to develop.

Hey,

looks like a nice looking light Brahma pullet. Although I agree, still too young to tell for the particular breed. My Buff crosses took six months to tell. But how she's turning out, I'd say pullet. Goodnight, God bless.

hopefully a pullet! She’s the only light brahma I have and I’m praying for a hen!
