Wondering??

Wondering if this is a hen or rooster? Thanks =) The chick is almost 6 weeks old

If I had to guess, I would say cockerel but you won't know for sure until it crows or lays an egg.

I was thinking a rooster also but really too young for me to tell. I would think it's comb would be bigger though.

We are hoping it is a hen. We can't have roosters in our city. When do roosters start to crow?

It's hard to tell. I have heard of them starting as young as 12 weeks. Mine started around 15 weeks.
