My guess is hen; how old is the chick?

 

[SilverBirds]

Cockerel for sure.

It's a rescue/foster fail so not sure on exact age. I'm guessing at least around 6 weeks?

Oh! In that case, it's a roo. Man, I was thinking it was younger!

Normally dark Brahmas with any solid black feathers are male, and I believe that's what you have. However, this one looks like it could be a Brahma mix. There shouldn't be any red or brown markings on a purebred dark Brahma.
