Serama cockerel or pullet?

[sareydoll]

We thought this little baby(Dumpling) was a pullet, but as of, oh, this morning, now we aren’t so sure. A little background:

About 12 weeks old
Blue/black Malaysian Serama dad
Mille Fleur D’uccle mama
No attempts to crow yet (At least I don’t think so)
Half brothers had HUGE combs and wattles by this age.
1st pic- Dumpling
2nd pic- Noodle
3rd- half brother at approx 9 weeks
4th- Dad
5th- Mom

Any thoughts, because by this age we had known for a looooong time about his brothers.

Looks like a pol pullet to me what made you think it’s a roo? A full body photo would also help with ID

Thanks! The comb size and color suddenly seem so different between the two of them within the last two days. Here’s Dumpling strutting around this afternoon.

Nothing screams roo to me by now you would have definitely seen all the telltale signs of her being a roo. If you look carefully, she looks just like mom, but with a serama tail!

I think her comb is possibly turning red because she’s at point of lay, maybe you’ll get some eggs soon?

I don't see any male feathering, so I'm going to say pullet.
Mom and dad are gorgeous!

I figured as much, and I needed some more experienced eyes to help. Whew!
