I'm a 6.5 week old Ancona - am I roo or pullet

[M.sue]

I'm gonna say pullet like the other replies. The comb should be slightly visible by now. Give it another week or two, you'll know then....just my thinking.

In another week or two the comb will be large, even if it is a pullet.

Mine made me worry the whole time, until she laid an egg. The tail even looks rooish.

Here is mine at 7 weeks

Pullet

She prefers NOT to be held - but will allow it without pecking.

She's the first to rush away when the White Leghorn roos come running over.

I hope you cleaned your glasses.

The things we do for our chickens....

Yes! HAHA!

She not only pooped on my glasses, but she also pooped on the table during the same photo op

Note the pile by the glasses and the yellowish stuff in the second photo. Gotta love chicks!

As soon as it stops raining I'll get another set of photos - close ups and overhead ones if possible. I am thinking and hoping she's a pullet too based on her comb not growing out so fast. The White Leghorn roos at 6.5 weeks had combs bigger then hers and the WL pullet's comb stayed small like ACs comb until recently - they just turned 10 weeks old.

She's just beautiful.

Here is my girl at 8-9 months, she is very outgoing and funny. She loves attention, but on her terms. She will hop up in my lap, but wont let you pick her up.

AC's comb is starting to show and it's still yellowish - but smaller then your girl's comb. I'll get another pic of her in a little while when the rain stops. I do so pray she's a she! HAHA!

Here's a better shot of her comb
