I NEED HELP GENDERING MY RIR CHICK

[Vickischics]

Hard to say being that young. At least for me it is. But maybe someone else will be able to classify it for you.

Your correct, it's TOO YOUNG!
I totally understand the excitement of knowing asap. But, isn't that the fun of having chicks??
The Surprise!!!

Yes it is fun, but I think they are wondering because they live in a suburban neighborhood where no roosters are allowed

I understand but, its truely too young.
When you must have a certain sex, it's best to pay extra for the Hatchery or Breeder to "Vent Sex" them.
That way, you have a better chance of having want you want and not have to worry.

It has not wattles yet so how is it a boy?

I mean that they are a little pronounced and pink. They are there, even if minuscule. Females will just have fully covering them, or just a stretch of pale skin where they would be.

@Vickichics I understand that too. But they messaged me and told me the whole story. It was hard for me to understand too, until I knew the full story

I'm not allowed a roo....I got 6 little "pullets" 6 months ago. One had a tiny tail and red comb when we got him, but the guy felt his pelvic bones, and said he was a hen. SO.....after months of second-guessing myself........about 8 weeks ago I finally concluded he was a roo with his hackle feathers and large rose comb. Today he crowed. NO ONE HAS REPORTED US YET HAAHHAHAHAHAH! I still can't find him a home, so for now he's a keeper!
