I’m pretty sure this is a Silver Laced Orpington. The lady I got eggs from breeds them and gave me a mix but said there should be at least one SLO. 6 weeks old...cockerel or pullet?! My other cockerels from this hatch have much much more red, developed combs.

i’m leaning cockerel. there’s another cockerel in the background, though, like you said it has much bigger comb. for now, i’m guessing cockerel.

Yes I have 4 that I have known are cockerels for weeks now and then this one that really isn’t changing too much and isn’t nearly bad red or big as the others 🤔
 
UPDATE at almost 12 weeks. I’m still so unsure, comb is more pink in person and this one is no where near as developed as the other 3 (mixed breed) roosters I have from the same hatch....thoughts again please?!
