New to this. Is this chicken a roo or pullet? Thank you!

Can anyone tell me if this chick is a roo or pullet? We bought it at a chicken swap. They said it was a pullet. I am starting to think its a roo. Also it's half rir and half ameraucana. Is there a way to know if it has the blue egg gene?

That's a VERY tiny photo, but from what I can see? ROO.

That's a rooster and with the single comb it's unlikely to have the blue egg gene (it's a trait linked closely to the pea comb gene).

Thanks for the advice. All the hens picked on him for a long time. Since he was new to the group. I guess he will have the last laugh when he is bigger then the rest.
