Pullet or Cockerel??

[ChicKola]

I know the common response is “too young to tell” but with all the BYC experts here I’m sure someone has a clue about my 2 Wyandotte’s!

They’re both GLW but one has a ‘rare’ single comb. My initial thought had been that they’re both males ….. I really hope they’re not, but at 6 weeks old, does anyone have any inkling on what genders these two might be?

That Brahma in your avatar is also likely male.

Yep I knew that for sure! I have 3 and he’s developed quite different and it’s been easy to tell he’s a boy!

I agree, they're both cockerels.
and I wouldn't call the single comb 'rare'. I'd call it 'hatchery quality', as they're not desired.

2 weeks later. Is the consensus still that these two are both cockerels?
