I agree with TMG but then I a have only had chucks for 2 1/2 months. So my thoughts amount to nowt.

already had one hen turn out to be a cock. nasty suprise yesturday when i was woke up at 5 by a crowing cock lol
-
We think it's a girlie.....she's got a big bum!!!! ;)
-
Arr poor chuck it could get a complex being told it has a big bum.
-
A very well developed comb for a girlie unless she's extremely close to POL, in which case you're question will be answered.
-
How old is it jonandjen? If over 15 weeks I think its a girl - but I've only had chooks since April so know nothing!!

My cockerel had pointy feathers on his neck and rump by 12 weeks jonandjen, Yours looks like it could be a little girl, my girls combs and wattles all turned red at 21 weeks just before they started laying, and the cockerel was crowing at 23 weeks :roll:
-
about 15 weeks i think
really hope its a hen love the colour
thanks everyone
