I've never seen a pullet that age with such a large red comb, so I think cockerel.I have an 11 week old barred rock who is supposed to be a pullet, but I'm not so sure. Can anyone help out?

Also, how accurately can you tell his/her gender just from this picture? If you need any more angles, please let me know! Or is there a way of telling that can't be found from a picture?
Any help is greatly welcomed!
Cannot see your pics. Error message comes up instead.
SO far all look like pullets, and we've already discussed Ainsley.Okay, another weekly check in... the chips are starting to fall on the pullet vs. cockerel bet!!!

Josephine - Black Sex Link - 5 weeks .... Okay, YES, I know she's clearly a pullet. But I can't have her feeling left out, can I?

This is a 5 week old chantecler, I've heard they are hard to tell if it's a pullet or cockerel...any thoughts on this one? I have 4 chanteclers and 3 black cochins. The cochins I am pretty sure there are 2 girls and one boy, despite the lady at the chicken swap assuring me that all 3 were girls TIA
Unfamiliar with Chantecler, but don't see any obvious cockerels yet, combs all pale, except for red visible in a bit of Cochin comb. Do not know how the Chanteclers develop, so too early to be certain at 5 weeks. They should be solid white with yellow legs. Anything else means the line is not pure somehow (maybe a sneaky roosterTwo of the chanties I cannot tell apart, one has brown feathers here and there and the other has different colored legs.

Thank you! I thought the brown in the one and the different colored legs in the other might be a color deviation for girls vs boys lol. Dang, I'm gonna ask the guy I bought them from if he knows what breed the sneaky rooster is!
