Silver Laced Wyondotte Pullet or Roo?

The head looks like a pullet (like you said) but those long legs say "rooster". Our original flock of six included six different breeds. One silver-laced Wyandotte was the meanest little chick I'd ever encountered. She nearly killed our sweet Buff Orpington. I wrote a story about her for the local newspaper. It's on my websites below and called "A Problem Chick".
By the way, she settled down a bit when she began laying and turned out to be a "good girl" (but never tame). It will be interesting to see how yours turns out.

Thanks, yes she is tempermental. pecks me sometimes when I catch her. Good thing My older girls are Production Reds. She pecked my dominant hen exactly one time.
 
Remember this bird? I posted months ago wondering whether this SLW was a pullet or roo. Well I am just getting around to updating. This is Bliz today. She did indeed turn out to be a pullet, although she lays smallish eggs. She lays regularly. Hopefully this helps those wondering about their young Wyondottes.
