14 weeks old. blue mottled Orpington? I think it’s a cockerel but am I right?

Thank you all in advance for helping me! I had posted before to see what everyone thought as far as breed and blue mottled Orpington is the response I got. The older this one gets the more I’m thinking it’s a boy but want some experience eyes to look and let me know what you have to say as well.

Do you have any others to compare him/her to? If it's a boy he'll be heavier.

I am atrocious at gender identification but I think cockerel

The bottom left photo looks like it might tell the whole story which does say cockerel..

For other posters.. it says 14 weeks old.

ETA: looks more Lavender than blue mottled to me.
