Hello all!
I know my chick is fairly young to gender accurately, but my understanding is that Wheatons specifically can typically be sexed by 3 weeks. I suspect this little may be a rooster...darker wing feathers than my other 2, and comb developing a bit more pronounced already. I'm new to this breed so was hoping for some Wheaton experts to weigh-in. Thanks in advance!!

Two early to say yet.
Definitely agreed/understood. Was just curious for educated guesses, etc. This is my first batch of straight run chicks so I've been entertaining myself guessing (and then changing said guess. Haha) every few days. Thanks for your input!
