Hello! This is an update on a thread from a few weeks ago. Feel free to check out the old thread if you wish.

Anyways...

I have been raising an easter egger chick that was supposed to be a girl, but it has shown several signs of being a boy instead such as pattern, comb development, and behaviour. At this point I am pretty sure that it is a boy, but I would like some opinions of more experienced owners of chickens. Or perhaps it is still too young to be certain? What do you guys think? Pictures are attached.

Looks like a cockerel to me. How old?
ETA: Sorry, I totally missed it in the title.

Pattern, coloring, and redness and size of the comb at this age. make me think cockerel.
