5 week old Light Brahma - S/he's a bit smaller in size than the other 2 LB's we got at the same time & hasn't feathered in nearly as much as the others either, pretty mangy looking actually. Also, there are a couple of "bald" spots on the top of each wing, or the wing bow I think it's called. Gets along well w/ the rest of the flock but does tend to be a bit of a loner - What's got me confused is that I'm not seeing a difference in the combs between this one & the other LB's - Maybe it's too early for that still?
The first 2 pics are of the bird in question, the third is one of the other LB girls for comparison.

Thanks in advance!!

I think it is a girl, how is her comb/wattle size with the others? Did she feather out slower than the others? Sometimes these are idicators of a guy. But sometimes they are wrong. You might want to compare with the same breed, as all breeds are different. I think its a Girl. Hope I helped.
 
I'll say roo. I'm not an expert but I'm usually right at least 50% of the time.
