I ordered pullets but I need help sexing my speckled sussex chick, now 10 weeks old. I heard a crow the other day and this little one saw a cat and started doing some kind of loud call. It also is always charging the other chicks and flares out it neck feathers, just recently it has become very aloof towards me, it used to hope on my arm and lap at feeding time now it stays as far a way as possible. I placed my fingers under the feather along the neck and honestly can't tell if they are u shaped or pointed. It also the first to get red in comb and waddles about 9 weeks old they were as large as what is present now. I am very new to chickens but I am leaning towards rooster on this one. I have to report the sex error by 17 weeks to get a refund so any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Lisa
