Bantam Cochin cockeral or pullet??

Ok, thank you I will definitely look for those signs with my little Pipin.
But she is growing her tail A LOT slower, she hasn't even gotten a feather yet, but with the feather feathered feet breeds the cockerals grow in more feathers, and Pipin has grown her feathered feet fairly quickly.
But your advice will definitely keep me looking for any more clearer signs within the next couple of weeks.
As I will keep you guys updated to see if identifying this little chick becomes for obvious later on.
You're very welcome! :)

It sounds like it very well could be a cockerel then, but it could end up being a pullet. Like I said, with some breeds, it is a bit tricky to figure out their gender.
 
Update!!
Its been a couple of weeks since I was suspicious it was a cockeral, I think it's a girl, but just wanted to get your guy's thoughts since the last time I had pictures her.
Thank you!
 
Here she is, sorry for the hold up.

I sure hope so, my Barred Rock was acting, like a cockeral when she was a chick, but maybe my little Pippin is going through her cockeral phase too lol
But all in all shes very nurturing to my other two chicks I have with her, especially when preening and cleaning everyone else's beak when eating, it's the cutest thing ☺️
 
Aww cute, I have many of the same breed, of my older two one I was certain was a roo is now a lovely pullet, this is what mine look like at 7 weeks if you want a reference point, the grey one is the pullet
