SLW hen or roo?

[aglandaetap]

Looking for more opinions - here's my 9-week old SLW, cockerel or pullet. I've been told many times it's a rooster when he/she was a bit younger I'd like To know if still looks boyish since it has changed a bit physically, I think.

At 11 weeks old they both look like pullets. A cockerel would have patches of white on his wings, have much bigger wattles and comb, and be a lot redder in the face. The girls will start to grow their wattles and combs from around this age and start to pink up but they won't go really red until they are getting ready to start laying for you.

I think it's a pullet too.

your 4 week old chicks are TOO young please post new photos when they are 8 weeks old

As for your chick, I'd say it's a bit early to guess on gender; however, nothing screams rooish to me yet. Post pics again at 8 weeks of age. Slw's are tricky to sex,

Also get a pic of the tail feathers, and feet
