Hello,

Please forgive me, I have posted the "Roo or pullet?" question once already on this particular bird, Little Red, at 7 weeks old, then updated at 9 weeks.
I received lots of great advice at 7 weeks, to wait a little longer. When I updated at 9 weeks, I got 1 pullet/1 roo vote. I think Little Red was just too young both times.
Well, Red is 11 weeks old today (She/he was born on Valentine's day

). I have all new pictures, and am STILL going back and forth on roo or pullet. Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated. Aside from updating, I promise to make this my last post on this topic for this bird.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. HOPEFULLY she/he is old enough to get some hard answers now.












If needed, I can try to get a picture of Red's "sister" for comparison. She's more flighty, and a heck of a lot harder to get a good picture of. But Little Red does have bigger feet/lets, and is a tad bigger than her.
 
From my little experience of 3 RIR pullets now and 2 males last year I'd say cockerel. My 3 month old pullets have no where near the comb or wattles.
 
Thank you!! I thought I saw saddle feathers starting to come in, and "he" is super shiny in spots,the feathers almost look wet or greasy. But I still was confused, lol.
