Rooster?

Hey there,

I have three new chooks, should be two barnevelders and one gold laced Wyandotte. Bit worried the Wyandotte is a roster, they are approx 7-8 weeks old

thank you

Yes, that could be a male because the comb is pretty wide And colored. However, even females will have color in their comb at 8 weeks, so wait a bit longer as the male feathering should start to be apparent around 12 weeks.

Here is a 6 week old pic of our four GLW -two of them are male and two are female as they are just about 1 year old now. In this pic, only one of them looks obviously male, but all have color in their combs.
