He is a beautiful boy.

Edit: In the third picture it looks like there is a female pre-flower pistil. You may have a she-boy.

Hermie seeds are notourious for going hermie . Good fem seeds will be fem . That seed most likely didn't get treated well .
you have a heshe I would pull it...

If they are feminized I would just keep it and pluck the male flowers off. In due time it might become 100% female, or it could turn 100% male or just stay a complete hermie (if that's possible). If it's not important then I guess the culling advice would save time and space but if I were you I'd keep it, keep plucking and see where it goes.

That should work! I forgot to add, just based on my own experience, I've never had a hermie that didn't eventually go all the way fem or male, but by the time it's flowering or ready to flower, which ever sex dominates, that's probably what it will eventually completely shift towards. Just trying to help as much as I can because I know hermies are controversial amongst some growers but they probably have a large number flowering and a fairly big garden so extreme measures have to be taken. But I think when your garden is smaller they can be controlled much easier until the plant figures out which way it wants to go.
Actually imo the biggest reason you get hermies in a feminized pack is genetics not stress....
to suggest the a seed among several was treated badly is a stretch at best......
If I bought a pack of feminized and I saw a plant with male flower is to make sure the plant isnt male only....
If the plant is male then you might not actually have feminized seeds....
One thing to expect with feminized seeds is that you are much more likely to get hermie plants no matter what you do.....
its genetics....
I believe an all male plant in feminized seeds is almost impossible.......

There are actually two different types of hermies.....
they are referred to either perfect..... or imperfect....
imperfect means the plant has both male and female flowers but they are seperate.... balls...
while what are often called nanners are the perfect type...
because flowers contain both male and female types....
My advice would have to factor that into the equation about what to do with the plant....
