Un-Known Chicken Gender

[EmilyChickens]

Hello all of you BYC members! Could any of you guys help me determine the gender of one of my 8 week old chicks? We are all debating over the fact is it's male or female. The chick is a pure Dark Brahma chick. The chick looks like a female except smaller. But all of our other chicks that are the same age are a lot bigger. If you guys need pics just let me know so I can post them for you. P.S all the other chicks are mutts. 1 Dark Brahma+Australorp, and 2 Dark Brahma+Light Brahma




Thanks Everyone! Emily-Chickens

The chick I'm talking about is the smaller gray one. I have more pics if needed.

It also doesn't have spurs. Just tiny little bumps.

Anyone have any comments? Just even a guess maybe?

I'll say only the Dark Brahma is a hen. Judging by the looks of her she'll be mean when sitting on the nest.

Looks like a pullet to me. BTW, roosters do not develop spurs until they are well over 6 months old, sometimes, not until they are about a year old, depending on breed and individual.
