I’m new to chickens and cannot tell with this comb type if I have a roo or hen. Can anyone tell or is it too young?

Welcome to BYC! :frow

Red wattles in the previous 2 and next couple weeks are the very first signs.

Wyandotte boys are usually good to show their colors early. Still looks like a pullet right now!

Hatchery boys also often start to have bars on the wing shoulder instead of lacing. That's not always true, but the lacing still looks good.

12 weeks is often when the male specific pointy saddle and hackle feather changes are becoming well visible.
