Okay… so i need help. I bought 2 black sex link chicks from Rural King about 7 weeks ago. The both were black, but one was solid black with black legs/feet (Jolene), the other had a large white patch on its chest and yellow legs/feet (Beth). Well… now that they have grown up a bit they definitely still look VERY different. Beth is much larger and heavier than my other chicks (including my black australorps), now has spurs budding, also huge legs (again noticeably bigger than the other chicks),and to me looks like saddle feathers possibly coming in. Beth also began having a reddish comb at only 4 weeks old while NONE of the other chicks do. Beth definitely has the coloration of a “pullet” black sex link (black body, rust color around neck and on its head). I have done TONS of research and everything says: “if the colors are … then it is a pullet”. but with everything in me i swear this chicken has to be a cockerel! it even has a different personality than all the other!… please someone help
