From what I can see I would go with hen but might change my mind if you can post a better pic.

My best guess is, wait a few more weeks, and if it lays an egg, it's probably a hen. :roll:

Dont ask me, our light sussex hen that my daughter named Tiffany turned out to be a Timothy.

Mmmmm, larger comb than the hen, but not as big as the cockerel behind it. My guess is cockerel!!!!

Hi
By the colour of his comb and the the size of his wattles I'd say a boy. Girls don't tend to redden up until they think of coming into lay which will be a few weeks yet.
Just going by what happen with my light sussex bantams.
