Light Brahma 🤔

I’ve posted about ferna/ferno before, and most said cockerel, she/he is now 12 weeks and I see a red face and larger comb but feathers indicate pullet, should I be able to tell difference by now?

He's a roo. Also, I think you accidentally double posted

 

[Cloverr39]

Still a cockerel.

 

[SilverBirds]

Cock.

What makes ya'll so sure? I'd guess pullet...

I guessed based off the comb and waddles. I know this is a standard sized brahma, but with my bantam brahmas I was easily able to tell at this age. My boys' combs and waddles were red and bigger than my pullets.

1st pic is roo
2nd pic is pullet
Here they're about a week away from 3 months old.

He does still look like a cockerel. You may need to wait a couple more week though because Brahmas are one of the breeds that are difficult to sex at a young age.

You’re correct, feathers are not screaming cockerel at this point. You either have a slow developing cockerel or you’ve got yourself a tom boy.

Good luck.
