I have a 4.5-week old chick (a golden laced wyandotte) whose comb appears to be turning slightly pink already. It is also starting to develop some small wattles, which have also turned slightly pink. I worry this chick may be a roo, but it's comb and wattle look like nothing compared to my Barred Plymouth Rock chick, who I know for sure is a roo. Could this earlier than usual comb and wattle development be specific to wyandotte chicks? Is there a chance that my golden laced wyandotte chick is a pullet? Thank you for any input!
