Pullet or cockerel? (updated current pics)

[Rhodebar Lover]

Controversial but I'm leaning towards it being a cockerel

It has red feathers on the wings, usually a sign of cockerel but it's still early.

Nah, those aren’t boy feathers. That pattern looks female.
Can you part the feathers around the comb and get a pic, Kody?

We can’t tell how large the comb is, because the crest obscures it.
And is there any chance you could get a full pic of the chest feathers? If those are solid black feathers coming in, that’s a concern.

Sure, I'll try and get a better picture of the comb. Thanks for all of your responses

No problem! I read through your other thread, it’s awesome that you rescued this cutie.
My current vote is female.

Okay I’m sorry to keep badgering you, but is there any way you could get a pic of its whole front, straight-on, from head to toe? Kinda like this?

I really just can’t figure out that chest feather development.
That’s the last ask, I promise.

Agree this little silkie mix looks female. She is a beauty. Were you able to find her some chicken friends?

Okay, yup, that’s a girl. Her comb is tiny, her pattern is female-specific, and the smudge of black chest feathers means nothing. Many pullets get that. One of mine did.View attachment 2773885

Thank you so much for quickly responding! It's exciting trying to figure out if it's gonna be a hen or rooster!

Chances are it’ll grow out anyways, like my girl’s did.
