A full body picture will help, but my gut is that she is an early maturing pullet.

For you and Sourland thank you for your help. Im so inexperienced mo definitely wasnt comfortable with me going papparazzi hahaha. If it makes any difference, mo is skittish just like all the others, ive only loved them but they chirp when i touch them and they run away

Thank you for your response, would you mind telling me what exactly makes you think that? The neck feathers are pointy so i thought that may mean she is a roo. The wattles and comb obviously didnt help with that suspicion haha the tail feathets are nice and round which points to a pullet i think. But my other RIR have all messed up tail and saddle feathers and are pullets. Its hard to decifer

Neck feathers are not good indicators of sex. In both genders they appear pointed. A cockerel would have darker pointed feathers on shoulders and saddle at this age
