This is our Silver Laced Wyandotte. Any guesses on gender?

Age please?

x2 we need the age.
I'm thinking Pullet, though.

Age please?

Between 4 and 5 weeks. I've had her (?) for 4 weeks. I'm not exactly how old it was when we adopted from the store.

Could you wait, say, another two weeks then post pics of the comb please? It's a little young to be sure, although I don't see any early cockerel signs.

Sure! I will post follow up pictures. I've tried googling, and the images I've found seemed to have the coloring of what they were showing are female. And there are no signs of pink/red in the comb so far. I'm just feeling a little unsteady about those findings so far because she seems to have a bit of a bad attitude! :/ She jump kicks the other chicks. I'm not sure if that's a sign that she's a he.... or if maybe she just wants to be at the top of the pecking order!

Thanks for all the replies!!

It depends. Yes, cockerels can be mean and have an attitude, but there are also bossy pullets that do that too. So there really isn't a good ways to Telly eh difference except by comb color.

A bit young still. Fear not, even pullets can exhibit "bossy" behavior.
