Mutt chick! Pullet or Roo?

[SHA3]

8 weeks ago we hatched a clutch of “mutt” eggs half from a silver laced Wyandotte roo and half from an Olive Egger Roo! Only one has shown profoundly rooster characteristics out of seven until 2 weeks ago! Now this one has me questioning if it is make or female! Any opinions!

Good success!

At 8 weeks I would say that's a cockerel.

Pretty sure feather sexing only works as very young to day old chicks and only in certain breeds.

Day old chicks don't have feathers.
I've used this and it works, along with the day-old method where you check the places where the feathers would come in.

Day old chicks do have feathers. Here one of mine when she was 3 days old.

It looks like a roo. Red comb, the tail is very upright and looks like two feathers are growing differently in the top. I think roo

Three days isn't day-old. Chicks are born with down.

Looks like a roo to me! He is gorgeous.
