Okay, I have some admittedly small and low-quality pictures of two golden Sebrights whose genders escape me because they're giving mixed signals. (Hen-feathering in Sebrights is not one of those signals I'm using.) Some of these pictures were taken when they were 9 weeks old, most were taken four days later so about 9 and a half weeks.

Sebright 2:
Going by combs and lack of noticable wattles, it looks like these chicks are the same gender. But #2 we've decided is most likely a pullet, while #1 has crowed a few times on two occasions. The first time was when they were about four weeks old. It crowed about 2 to 4 times. The second time was when they were eight weeks old. (I have a video of it on YouTube.) However, since our d'Uccle started crowing, I haven't heard anything remotely like a crow from Sebright 1.
Statistically, I would have a hard time believing they're both female, because that would mean out of five chicks from TSC I got 4 pullets and one cockerel.
