Welsummer pullet or cockerel???

Yes the comb is large. However, some hens can have very large combs too. All depends on the breed!
Some hens can have larger combs, but not like that, at such a young age. Usually I would say its too young to sex, but since it has such a large comb, and red, there isn't hardly a chance of it being a pullet.
 
Thanks for all the replies! Just to confirm everyone's suspicions, at 4 weeks old the little bugger started trying to crow, so I found him a new home and replaced him with a pullet of the same breed. Under different circumstances I would have been happy to keep him, but with my neighbors as close as they are I don't want to subject them to the noise.
