Sexing crested cream legbar

[Kitty_stuber]

Make or female? These are all pictures of the same chick

The chick is way too young to tell. You have to wait until he/she has a lot more feathers and the comb and waddles start to grow.

He’s a cockerel.

Cream Legbar are autosexing. You can sex at hatch by the down colour. Males are light, females dark.

Looks female to me. Different lines are supposed to sex a little differently, though. So if the originator of the eggs has pictures of their stock as babies, I'd request them.

EDT: I've changed my mind. Male. Needed to adjust screen brightness, I suppose.

I've done a fair bit of reading on the breed prior to purchasing some hatching eggs. My understanding is the males usually have that yellow dot on the head just like that chick.

Looks male.

Having had females from chicks I'd say male.

I say it is male. I it is light in color. It has no black chipmunk strips. In picture 3 and 4 about where you thumb is looks like a lighter yellow spot. The spot is not always white.

That is a cockerel. Cream legbars are autosexing, so boys and girls look different from hatch.
