is this BLRW a girl?

[slickchik]

I just hatched out some blrw myself and the two cockerels I ended up with had a lot of color on their chest just like yours but the pullets had much more black/grey. So from my experience I'd say that is a boy. Sorry to be such a party pooper

And also my cockerels at 12 weeks still don't have saddle or hackle feathers.

My pullets are just starting to get color on their chests... How does this particular chicken compare to the others you hatched out ?

This lot is very darkly-colored, some hatching eggs came from a breeder in Vancouver and others came from McMurray so there is an array of "styles" among the babies... Some have more red, some more blue, some more navy blue, one splash... no two are developing the same... I have one 10-week old girl that looks identical to this little one in color and body shape/feathering, but she has zero wattles. Combs are the same.

So...
