Salmon Favorelle Roo or Pullet?

[Mikski]

I have this chick that is 3ish weeks old now (maybe 3.5). I was so sure it was a pullet until I just started noticing the darker wing feathers, and now there are a couple darker on the chest. Pretty sure it came from ideal. Is there a chance it’s a girl or for sure a cockerel?

My two girls came from Ideal (or Cackle? I forgot what the farm store told us), they are relatively good compared to other places such as Hoovers. Just luck of the draw haha.
(One’s comb got taken off in a freak accident, that’s why she looks bald lol)

I’m a bit confused on one of my Salmon Favorelles. It does have some black feathers on its chest which I know is normally a cockerel sign but it’s not a big block of them and it otherwise is pretty similar to its sister in appearance. Not sure if it’s just because it’s hatchery quality or if it’s actually a roo. About 9 to 10 weeks old now.

Pullet, I think! So cute.

I keep going back and forth hen vs roo on mine. It’s 4 weeks old now and if a hen, I feel like it will look like yours. My chick seems pretty dark but not nearly as much as my friends that is certainly a rooster from the same hatch.

It could go either way but I am going pullet mainly due to the amount of white and light browns there are.

I hope so. This is my friends’ from the same hatch that I’m certain is a little rooster.
