This “hen” is almost
4 weeks old. She has a more prominent comb and waddles than the others. I’m thinking she may be a rooster. Thoughts??

S/he is either a Plymouth rock or a Silver Cuckoo Maran. I cannot tell them apart yet.Breed?

Thanks for the info. I ordered Cuckoo Marans and Plymouth Rocks. They look completely the same. All of their feet are yellow still with some black "striping" on them.Cuckoo Maran should have white feet.
Barred Plymouth Rock (or any other color Plymouth Rock) should have yellow feet.
I see yellow feet in the photo, so probably Barred Rock.
Or possibly Black Sexlink, usually created by crossing a Barred Rock hen with a Rhode Island Red Rooster. If he starts getting red feathers as he grows up, then he's a Black Sexlink. If he stays black & white with no other colors, then Barred Rock.
