Sill think cockerel. Wattles are more pronounced.

I think its a pullet. Mine from Hoover's (through TSC) got super red wattles and comb at 3 weeks. I was mad that the pullet I had waited weeks for was a cockerel. His comb was huge. Well, at 19 weeks old he laid an egg. She's my best layer now. There's still hope. I'll guess pullet.

That's so funny. You really never can tell I guess till they lay an egg or crow

Yep! I recently have started vent sexing my birds (chickens, ducks, guineas, and even quail!) with 100% accuracy. It has to be done in the first 2 days though. I love doing it. It takes some practice, but once you get the hang of it it's priceless. Hoping your baby is a girl! She sure is a pretty bird.
