Welsummer - Hen or Roo?

[peptowishboon]

2 day old Welsummer chick. Hen or roo?
Or maybe easier to tell in a few more days?

Yeah, you'll have to wait quite a few more weeks for people to be able to tell.

At 3 or 4 weeks the breast feathers will start coming in. If mostly black it's a male. If mostly reddish it's a female.

Need a pic of the side of its face. Welsummer are an auto-sexing breed, pullets will have “eyeliner” around their eyes, cockerels won’t.
