Too early to tell?

Hi! Was hoping someone could share some insight as to whether this is a male or female? My sister found this baby at our local McDonald's and no mama or siblings around. Im guessing the chick is about a week old but I have no idea.

Thanks

Yup, too early for gender ID.

Yeah I figured it was but I was hoping for a magical answer or something. I cant have roos where I live and its so hard not to get attached.

Lucky little chick! That's so crazy that she found it at McDonald's! So many name possibilities here. Any idea where it came from? I imagine it'd be extremely difficult to find out, but it sure makes for an interesting story Please keep us updated. Did she already have everything needed to keep the chick healthy or are you taking the chick? This is an adorable story

Right! No other hen or chicks around we both went back to the McDonald's and looked EVERYWHERE! We asked the employees and no one has seen anything apparently.

I have the baby with me set her up in the brooder with some heat and starter medicated feed and some sugar water.

I currently have 11 pullets so naturally since im the crazy chicken chick in my family I get to keep her (or him). Lol

It’s a pullet so far.
