Hello! I am new to chicken keeping, but I have a Speckled Sussex rooster and two hens (They are 9 months old now). Here are some photos of them at 5 and 6 weeks of age for comparison. I hope it helps you!This is my speckled Sussexx. It is a few days shy of five weeks wondering if y’all think it’s a pullet or a rooster???
Thanks!!!! it is a bit early to make any for sure guesses but I was just worried that the comb is a little bit red for the age, but maybe she is just an early developer??? I have a speckled Sussexx that is six years old and I just can’t remember if she was an early developer or notHello!

P.S. My rooster turned out to be incredibly sweet to humans and his hens.
I feel like it's too early to know for sure with your little guy. He could be a late-developing cockerel or an early pullet. I think you'll know for sure in a week or two.Thanks!!!! it is a bit early to make any for sure guesses but I was just worried that the comb is a little bit red for the age, but maybe she is just an early developer???

I have no experience with SS other than my one rooster and two hens. It was just one day (about 34 days old) I looked down at Lynn (now Alek) and I was like, "Oh! You look like a rooster." I had been worried about that chick because it was soooo slow to feather and I thought maybe something was wrong. Nope! Just a roo.Thanks!!!! it is a bit early to make any for sure guesses but I was just worried that the comb is a little bit red for the age, but maybe she is just an early developer???
