I vote pullet. Roos have pointy neck feathers and the feathers around the neck look kind of round.

The big clue is the vivid, deep color feathering. The second clue you have a junior roo is the erect stance. And that unmistakeable gleam in his eye!

One matronly, yet regal, Light Brahma hen, two Silver-laced Wyandotte hens, two Gold-laced Wyandotte hens, one Black Cochin hen, three Ameraucana hens, one Buff Brahma hen, four sassy Speckled Sussex hens, one Buff Brahma roo, and one nineteen-year old cat who's scared of all of them, especially the roo.
