16 week old Starlight Green Egger. Need help with gender

Also, I just wanted to add that I see you shared a picture of him when he was a smaller chick (3rd pic). You can tell from that age that he was a cockerel by the rust color developing on his wings. That is male specific.

@LaFleche is right, thhere is no doubt that ìs a cockerel. In Pic #1 as he's facing the camera his long blond hackle feathers make him look like a rock star. As you compare Pic #2 tp Pic #3, it's obvious. His flowing saddle feathers in front of his tail are very evident and his entire stance is so different from that of the pullet in Pic #3. Finally, that big red shoulder patch. Compare to thhe few red feathers on the pullet's wings, farther back. Sorry, but there's just no doubt.

Picture no.3 is actually the same SGE, just when (s)he was younger! Thanks so much for your help—we’re looking into temporarily rehoming him until we’re able to keep him.

You could always just say she's a crowing hen, and besides...what IS a hen, she can identify as a hen if she wants to
