Okay, EE baby, what gender?

This baby is the largest (and prettiest) of my chicks, probably around 18 days old. Her comb has gotten pinker all of a sudden and it is getting bumpy where none of the others are. Is she a roo?

Here's a side picture of her/him too but I don't think it will help much.

Way Too Young to tell gender. Come back in a few months.

Beautiful baby!

Comb that size that young I would guess Rooster, but it is a guess at that age.

Okay, thanks for your insight. I will wait patiently until the girls are MUCH older before I worry about it.
