5 week old Brown Chick

What breed does this look like and do you think its a hen or roo? I know the guy I got it from had RIR's, Barred Rocks, Black Copper Marans, and I think Americanas.

Don't see any barred rock... I'm guessing the RIR and EE but could be the marans too ... it doesn't look like a single comb which if it were the RIR and marans it would most likely have. I have a a chick the same age that is an EExRIR that looks very similar. It is hard to tell sometimes at five wks and the pics aren't real clear but I am thinking it might be a pullet... usually you can see some red in the comb and the wattles start growing by now. My little one is definitely a roo

Appreciate it, I'll try to get some better pics tonight.

Looks like a pullet to me.
