Is this Frizzle a Rooster or Hen?

Bantam Cochin Frizzle Pullet or Roo? "She" is 4 months old and has NOT attempted to crow or jump on any other bird. Acts like a hen No aggression to other chicks/chickens, Very skittish around us. Wish she wouldn't be so scared of me, though! Gets along with other hens, is at the bottom of the pecking order in a very small flock of Cochins and Silkies. The red comb and wattles came on fast, making me think she might bust out a crow at any moment. Obviously I hope this little white frizzle is a hen, as we cannot have a rooster. I have been wondering about this one since the day we brought her home at 10 days old Please tell me if you think "she" is a boy or girl? Thanks so much!!

Frizzles can be tricky, but I see the hackle and saddle feathers indicative of rooster. If you can straighten out the hackle feathers and compare them to its other feathers, you'll notice how thin and narrow they are.

Also, in the second pic, there is a Silkie that is most likely going to cause a lot of trouble and as a favor to you I'll come pick it up next week.
