Yet another cockerel?

[MamaJ1977]

I’ve been having terrible luck with getting cockerels this round. This one will be my 6th chick that’s probably a boy. It’s around 7-8 weeks old now. Another cockerel, right? Aside from the pink comb/wattles I’m seeing some black feathers coming in on the chest.

Oh yeah, that’s definitely a cockerel. Sorry.

Oh boy, that one does look like a cockerel. 6 out of how many total?

6 out of 9. Rehoming them has proven challenging. I found one gal with an animal sanctuary who took a couple. The rest, I’m still looking. Argh! Crazy how they changed from looking so pullet like to giant pink combs so fast!

Were these sexed from a hatchery or mixed up at feedstore?
So far over two years, 12 chicks 100% female from Meyers hatchery, I am due for a sexing mistake next spring!
