I am not sure. Separate her hair above her beak and look for a comb. (I usually just blow.) If you see a comb at this age chances are you have a cockerel. Does if have round, porcupine looking, feathers sticking out of the back of it's head and down it's neck?

No feathers that are round and porcupine looking. The attached picture shows her face and I'm not certain that's a prominent comb by any means.
