9 week old Light Brahma - Pullet or Roo?

[KatAdele]

We have four 9 week old chicks (all different breeds) and I was pretty sure they are all pullets but this week our Light Brahma's comb and cheeks are turning red fast. Does this mean she's a he? She doesn't act like a roo I don't think but were new to chickens.

I am new to chickens too. I have 3 and 2 of them ended up as roosters, their combs turned red fast and the hens still isn't red at almost 4 months. The roosters also have big wattles already and you can barely see the females. I am definatly not positive but I am leaning towards rooster

Im going to guess it's a cockerel too. They comb looks pretty red for only 9 weeks.

what type of chicken is your white one with the long leg feathers????

It's a light Brahma.

At least we live in the country where Roosters are okay but still was hoping for all layers. He/She doesnt act 'cocky' but seems pretty submissive but maybe that's just individual personality?

I think its a pullet. I will go out and take a pic of mine and show you why I think that. Although the comb is pink. My boy's comb is red and bigger and also yours tail says pullet too

See how the male has a bright red comb
