Welsummer? (Need help with breed ID and sexing)

[FarmSunnyside]

I've had chickens for a number of years, but this has been the first time that we've ordered our chicks online. We purchased 30 overall, half from McMurray and half from My Pet Chicken. All were bought as female. I've been able to ID all the chicks except for one at this point, but the breed I have left doesn't seem to match up. The breed I have left is Welsummer. The chicks are 14 weeks now, and honestly I'm just very curious to see what this one is. Thanks in advance for your help!

Meet Captain Huggy-Face (who we are hoping is just a fast growing hen, we haven't heard any crowing yet)

That's a Welsummer cockerel.

100% cockerel

Welsummers have gender differentiated plumage pattern. This is a cockerel.

@Ol Grey Mare is spot on. Welsummers have gender specific patterns. Females are a totally different pattern than males.

Yep, Definitely a Welsummer cockerel. He'll be gorgeous when he's an adult.

Here you can clearly see the difference in plumage between males and females.
