How old until you can tell me what this little one is!

I am totally falling for this chick. We have 5 EE and this little one is my favorite. We are only keeping two pullets. How old until we can know what this is and if it is leaning towards a roo can someone tell me so I will quit falling for it! It comes to me when I go to clean the cage and likes to be pet! I am in trouble if it is a male!

Way to young to be able to tell sex yet. Post pictures when the chick is about six weeks old. Maybe then?

In my experience, the friendly outgoing chicks are always boys! The little girls always run away. GL!

It's a boy. They are always worming their way into your heart! Blasted creatures!

I bet it is! I even slip and call it he. We can't have a rooster, We can't have a rooster, WE can't have a rooster!

I did find out it is legal, but we really don't have room for more than 6 and don't want one to be a rooster!

Ahh. Come on. If you can have a Roo, What's one more?

You guys aren't helping! Plus I don't really want attention brought to the chickens.

I will just have to give him to someone who wants a roo, if it does turn out to be a roo!
