Hello! New chick mom here. This sweet thing is around 7 weeks old. When it was two weeks old we assumed it was a pulley based off wing length and shape, as well as its tail feathers. Well today it crowed 🫣😆 two questions:
1. What breed am I? It came from a pullet rainbow run.

2. Am I a cockerel or pullet?

First photo is at 1 or 2 weeks old. Others at 6 weeks.

Looks like a pullet to me. No pointy hackle or saddle feathers (probably wouldn't show at 6 weeks anyway), no color in the comb or wattles, very horizontal carriage. If this is a cockerel, it hasn't started puberty yet.

I agree with @LaurenRitz . Looks like a pullet so far. It’s still young though so anything goes. Are you confident it was this one that crowed?
 
Current photos. Presumably around 7 weeks old.
