Hi guys, this is my 13 week old, still unsure about gender, hoping some of you Sussex people might be able to shed some light.







And just a cute pic of chill time

Looks like a pullet to me...

Thanks!
Still would like some confirmation that the egg is indeed from a Speckled Sussex if anyone can add an opinion!

Your egg looks rather dark for a SS, but it also looks wet, so that could be all that is. Here are some just laid eggs from a couple of my SS hens (not wet):

Yes I rinsed it off for its close up! It's just a light brown egg with speckles. Since my other 2 girls don't lay speckled eggs and 1 lays blue eggs, I don't know who else could have produced it! Buff Orpington and barred Rock have never laid a speckled eggs before. Maybe it's theirs. :confused:
 
Dorothy still insists on laying in the soaked hidden nest instead of the fresh straw in the nest boxes!

This is the nest she likes:
