U think hen?!? We have been thinking roo bc it's had very red and prominent comb and wattle for a while but the hackle feathers look more hen-like to me. Thanks!
 
Hackle feathers look rounded to me also, so I'd say pullet (but it does look older than 17 weeks).
 
hm. a lot of red comb and wattle for 17 weeks. I'll look for a picture of my Speckled Sussex hens at that age... Here she is, our Daisy at 16 1/2 weeks:

much smaller paler comb and wattle....
