Unsure if Hen or Roo?

[JPBeni]

Hi all,
Needing some help figuring out if Bertha is a roo or hen! Bertha is 3 months old and looks to be a cross between a barred rock and easter egger/araucana, due to the beard.

Reasons on why you think Bertha will be a hen or a roo would be great!

I'm not sure since barred rock hens look to also have a big red comb!

Thanks @Shabby Chic-Hens ! Can I ask how you knew it wasn't a roo? I also thought to add audio of a potential crow that Bertha made the other day that confused me. (Bertha Audio)

Im gonna say pullet.

The hands holding the bird are covering the saddle feather area. At this age or in the near future a cockeral will start to get pointed feathers there. A pullets will remain rounded. If this bird is about 12 weeks then I would say cockeral based on comb, but if it is closer to 15 weeks I would not take that guess without seeing the saddle feathers

I think the hackle feathers would be too rounded to be a roo.

Here are hopefully better pictures! They were born exactly on May 14

I'm actually not sure, I received the eggs from a farmer which were supposed to be marans but hatched out a wonderful medley of breeds I'm not familiar with. I'm sure there are crosses
