Odd Bird Received

[AinaWGSD]

 If the white chick is an ISAbrown then it is definitely male. However, I would expect the comb and wattles to be much more developed, especially compared to the known pullets pictured. So that brings the breed of the white chick into question.

What hatchery did they come from? Also, can you get a clear picture of the comb?

Hello and welcome back to BYC!

You appear to have a cockerel on your hands if you purchased sex linked chicks.

I bought 10 sexed chicks,
One significantly different…afraid it might be a rooster,
He gifted an extra just incase …
Can anyone identify this odd one in breed…
No signs of rooster yet … 6 weeks in …
Thank you !

Welcome to BYC!
Those are sex linked chicks. Some places call that variety golden comets and the white one is probably a cockerel of the same breed. The pullets are usually red & white or gold & white and the cockerels are solid white.

To begin to identify breed we need to see the chicken's legs to be able to see the color as well as whether or not they are clean/feathered. We would also need to see the comb bud area so that we can see what type of comb this chick is going to develop. Was this an individual offering chicks from a backyard flock or? Asking because the other six appear to be red sex links, however unless this individual was breeding specifically for that linkage they could just be the result of barnyard mix breeding....
