Updated pictures of Lucky Duck the chicken

Had a feeling since birth it was a boy then convinced it was a girl now possibly a boy again. There are bronze feathers on the wings and the bronze at the based of the tail just might be saddle feathers. Thoughs?

My guess is that its a hen but I am no expert at this!! I'm sure there will be someone much more knowledgeable then me to help!!

I knew it! Little stinker. He's gorgeous though I have a soft spot for him. He was my only to hatch from my August hatch.

I suck at this so no I cannot really explain why other than his red shoulder area, thicker legs and overall size compared to the hens next to him.

The bronze on his wings and feather pattern is splotchy instead of evenly distributed. Leg thickness, emerging tiny saddle feathers

Thanks anyway! I was going off the feathers and I don't see the more pointy saddle feathers but I am really bad at this!!!! Still trying to learn
