This ugly little fellow is 5 weeks old and I am thinking fellow. What do you all think? Of 4 chicks 3 look like this one.

Sorry they are such bad pictures. He is a turkey to catch, always running around.

From the feathering I would say roo. There isn't any lacing on the feathers and the pullets are double laced like your pullet. This one looks alot like my dark Brahma cockerel did a week or so ago. Hardly any feathers and the ones he had were black and white. This is him now:

Paintedmeadows, your first pics are of a roo. I say this not only because of his feathering, but because of his bare wing bows as well. The second, larger pic is almost certainly a hen.
Lanissa, I looked all thru my photo album and couldn't come up with one good pic of one of my dark hens at 8 weeks. In this first pic you can kinda see the double laceling of a dark hen at the top of the pic. The second pic is of my dark roo, Thor, at exactly 8 weeks. Maybe that'll help.
