7.5 Week Old RIR Gender

[10LilChicks]

Could this 7.5 week old chicken be a pullet or is it definitely a cockerel? I know it has a long comb and waddle, but it is much lighter in color than the ones I know are cockerels. Does color matter? Thanks!

It's a cockerel.

That's definitely a cockerel.

combs and waddles don't often lie.
