This baby is about 5 weeks old. It's the sweetest bird of my littles, comes right to sit with me & loves people. They were all 4 supposed to be pullets but I think this one might be a cockerel?! I know its early but.....

It’s too early to tell, EE’s generally need a while to mature before you can know anything for sure. What makes you think cockerel?
 
The coloring. I have seen most say that the black & white ones are usually male. I don't see the classic red/rust wing coloring males this color often have though.
 
If I had to guess right now I would also say pullet, but it will be easier in about a month to tell. The coloring isn’t going to be a good indicator for them this young.
