Mille Fleur d’uccle Roo and/or Pullet?

[Puakea]

Here are our two cross breed mille fleur d'uccle & Easter Eggers that hatched on May 15th. Is it too early to tell if they are male or female? I read somewhere that it was possible to tell by the third week by looking at their developing comb. One is suspiciously looking more like a roo than the other.

I agree the first one looks a lot more roo-ish right now.

Where did you get these? Combs should be single I believe. First looks like a cockerel but as of now 2 could go either way.

first is Cockerel What kind of comb are they supposed to have? Looks like it's trying to squeeze out a walnut comb (UGHLY)

1sst looks cockerel but the combs off and they are too young.

They look like my Silkie D’Uccle crosses. Although mine have much less comb.

d'Uccles should have single combs, and it appears yours are peas. Any chance they're crosses? Brahmas? Both are showing quite a bit of development for their age.

I agree, it couldn't be a D uccle.

My friend had the fertile eggs and I hatched them in my incubator. I just found out that their mom is the d’uccle and their dad is an Easter Egger.

*Update
Their Dad, the roo, is an Easter Egger and their mom, the hen is a d’uccle.
