Rooster?

[Twalk12]

Hi there! We got day old red sex link females about 3 weeks ago and they are feathering out a good bit... I'm concerned we may have accidentally gotten a rooster in the mix as this one seems to be only getting white feathers. Am I right on this or should we wait a week or 2 more to see if the red feathers start coming through?

I attached a picture of a confirmed hen for reference.

In the second photo, are there reddish feathers on the front of the neck?

The chick might just be a female with more white than usual.

Yes there is a little bit of red on the neck

That looks like female coloring for a Red Sexlink
