A bit young to accurately sex. I see nothing that points to cockerel at this point. Post updated pics at 6 weeks.

Thank you so much! Would this kind of mutt mix cockerel develop red waffles as well? So far I’m not seeing any development there.It's definitely a Crested Cream Legbar mix, probably with an Olive Egger just based on the crest, feathered legs, and breeds that are listed. I agree that it's too young to sex accurately at the moment, but Legbars can have large combs so it might still be a pullet. Let the feathers grow in some and see if the comb develops any more over the next couple weeks and it should be a bit easier to tell.
I think if it's a cockerel, by the next 2-4 weeks there's a real good chance you'll be able to tell for sure. I know it's hard to wait but just post pictures on this thread and we'll see if we can help you.Thank you so much! Would this kind of mutt mix cockerel develop red wattles as well?

@GravityWaves @Overo MareWe are close to 6 weeks now… what do you all think? Male or female? Pics next to its hatch mates for comb reference.
