Is this a pullet or a cockerel?

Do you think this chick looks like a cockerel or a pullet?

How old and what breed?

With a comb that large and that brightly colored before it has even finished growing feathers on the head, I think that is probably a cockerel.

But I would wait a while longer to be sure. Gender differences usually become much more obvious as they get older.

Leghorn about 4 weeks old?

I would say that’s probably a cockerel, but I agree with NatJ that you should probably wait a little longer

I think it might be a little too soon to tell. Leghorns pullets have large combs early on. In your opinion, is there ANY pink in that comb at all? The comb looks large like a cockerel's but lacking color like a pullet's.

Here's my cockerel at about 4 weeks:

Could you get a side view pic of it's face?

It is a pale pink color

I’m guessing pullet as I’ve had one with similar appearance at this age. You should know within the next two weeks on the outside!

I am going to say pullet as well.
