It's not a Dorking bantam. It looks to be a red pyle Old English game bantam, and I'm thinking a cockerel because of the size of its comb.

Thank you! They were asst straight run - was hoping to get lucky with all pullets! So far he’s/she’s the only one I’ve been concerned about !

You're welcome. Bantams usually do come in straight run. I believe there are a couple of hatcheries that sell some varieties that have been gendered, but it's more money.

I hope you get females but with this one it's looking like it will be a cockerel.

I think pullet. My 3 week-olds had the same tiny comb (photo attached). Fingers crossed it doesn't get redder!
