Last of the 3.5 week old chicks - A Welsummer - he or she?

[Montana-Hens]

This last one has me even more stumped. I think it is a she and then I look at the photos and say maybe not. I've looked at pictures online all over the place and say he one minute and she the other. Maybe it is too early to tell, but I am going to tryin polling you all/

Head Shot:

Front view: The feathers say woman, the posture says male.

Side view: The feathers in person aren't as dark so I am thinking female, and then I am thinking male because maybe the camera shows the true colors....

I am so lost on this one...what do you think?

You stumped me. I'd say roo because of the stance, but the comb looks too tiny. I know someone else will give you a definite answer... if it were me, I'd just wait it out

Pics of our Welsummer pullets might help. They look really similar! Ours had a roo-ish stance as well and we were really worried. But at 8 weeks now we're pretty sure they're girls!!
I know other people with roos noticed dark breast feathers and that the eyeliner faded faster than the girls.... hope these help!

at 4 weeks:

at 5+ weeks

Thanks for the words of encouragement. Right now she looks just like Ophilia. Let's hope she follows in her "cousins" footsteps!

I know we all want to know right away, but it isn't always possible, but I do appreciate how everyone on this list shares their experiences.

My little Welsummer cockerels are pretty obvious at must two weeks old, so I'd say yours is a pullet. Mine already have big pink combs that young!
