Male or female??

Hi, I'm learning to vent sex. Is this a male or a female?

Vent sexing is more of an art than a science. Nobody is going to be able to tell you anything from that picture. You need a mentor, and you need to see hundreds of chicks a day just to even be somewhat competent at vent sexing.
Just to give you an idea of how difficult it is, this is a chart of vents magnified.

I see. I was hoping to learn from hatch to hatch. Thanks for the diagram.

I am also new to chicken raising. Trying to figure out if this hen is in fact a rooster? About 8mo old now, we were told it is a golden laced wyandotte

That is a pretty Easter egger pullet.
