This chick is 7 weeks old, its a Silkie, and still very young, but it's comb/wattles is screaming rooster at me.
I'm keeping an eye on this chick as I cannot keep roosters.
My other 3 chicks, still have very small combs and are not turning red-ish.

I know it's way to early to know for sure but I just want to make sure my guess of it being a boy will be right.

Thank you in advance.

Here's the chick in question.

Our 7 week old silkie went from Maxime to Hagrid today! He is 1 of five and stands alone....tallest, LOUDEST, and flutters around his little chick box. I greet them with soft hellos and I get in return a raspy squawk.
