When Your Black Sexlink Pullet Is Crowing - Breed ID for this roo?

[Whitepines]

I only bought this "pullet" because I wanted full size eggs. Now I have to decide if I buy more pullets for "Lucy" or if I rehome him. He's with bantam hens and a few Silkies and obviously can't stay with them once he matures. I'm wondering if he is even a sexlink? There was no spot on his head when I got him at about two weeks old.

That's a rooster.

That's a rooster.

Oh, for sure! But I'm thinking maybe not a sex link? Because it was sold as a pullet and didn't have a white spot on its head.

He could be a sex-link, the spot on the head that your referring to is only present when the chick carries the barring gene.
Your bird looks to carry silver lace instead of barring but real hard to tell from the pictures.

How old is this chicken? And where did you get it?
I'm wondering if its an Asian black. Its definitely not silver laced.

X2. Looks just like a lot of the Asian blacks that people have posted about here this year.

I'm saying it carries a lacing gene and its possible silver laced gene.
