You can usually tell at 4 to 5 weeks

I am very new to this... How can you tell at 4-5 weeks? Mine girls (I hope) are 6-7 weeks and I am worried about one of them. I can't have roo where I live.

Roosters can get a red comb sooner than hens and they get pointed feathers on the neck while hens usually get spoon shaped feathers. None of this is definite but I hope it helps

The pointed feathers ( hackles and saddles ) will not be apparent on Juvi roos until the bird is around 4 months old i.e 16 weeks so there is no point looking for these until that point to determine gender.

I think the top pic is a roo and the bottom pic a pullet. I'm Not good on ID of chick breed until they start to feather.

Lastly these two..

Here I see a roo on top pic and a pullet in bottom pic.

Then we have these two...

Close ups of suspected roo

And his sister?

Any ideas?
