I hatched a Domique hen and Easter Egger Roo egg and she is now 6 weeks old. She looks like a hen to me, but makes vocalizations like a rooster. What sex is she? Does anyone else have pics of what this mix looks like fully grown? The last pic is of her with a 6 week old Welsummer I'm pretty sure is a roo as well.



 
Welsummer is definitely a cockerel. It is a little harder to tell at this age, but based on the pictures, I think your cross is likely a cockerel.
 
I answered your other post but basically, your chick is a form of black sex link and it's a cockerel because the hen is barred (Dominique) and can only pass the barring gene to her male offspring, so this barred chick has to be male.
