My 6 week old salmon Faverolle which I think is a pullet has small sharp spur buds developing. Is this normal for this breed?

Can you post a picture? Hens can have spurs too, so that's not necessarily indicative of sex.
That is a definite pullet. With SFs the males have completely different coloring than the females.View attachment 3082643
They are little sharp nubs forming in the back of (her?) leg.
I assume all breeds are the same in this case. All my breeds have developed spurs, both male and female
Thanks that's a relief to hearThat is a definite pullet. With SFs the males have completely different coloring than the females.
As the others said, those are spur buds, which all chickens have, male and female.View attachment 3082643
