Is it possible to determine sex of this chick? She or he is 3 1/2 weeks old. I thought she was a pullet, she looks like the rest of my chicks with a bit more pink. She was vent sexed female although I know mistakes are made.

Vent sexing is around 90% accurate give or take a few points and some breeds may not be that high. 90% is what some hatcheries guarantee. Some even less for some breeds.
 
I've only had one batch of Swedish Flowers, and I have to say they're a bit like Leghorns where the cockerels were apparent really early. Hopefully you wanted at least one?!

Looks like you got some great genetics though, he's flowered and combed up super early.
