3 week old mystic onyx gender?

[_meels_ the chicken mom]

I know shes really young, but this is my 3 week old mystic onyx. I ordered all pullets but this one is pretty big and thicker than the other chicks. (Shes the only mystic onyx) the conbs pretty bug too. Any ideas?

Much too young to know for certain, so I'd update when he/she is about 6 weeks old.
If I had to guess now I'd probably say cockerel, but like I said it's too early too know for sure.

They are supposed to be easily sexed at hatch. Males will be orange. So if she had fully black or dark brown down, pullet. My MOs grew super fast compared to the other breeds I had with them.

It is a pullet. Mystic Onyx pullets are black and cockerels are a goldish color. (Picture from Hoover’s).

They don’t breed true. First generation can be feather sexed, but the second will not.

Ehh...... I don't put much stock into the colors for this one. I was repeatedly assured only black was an option for females. No other colors. Males would be the one to have other colors.

Thar light brown chick I picked out turned into this, and laid eggs. And she definitely isn't only black
