8 Week Old Black Australorp - Hen or Roo?

[OC Chick]

Hi! First time poster & new chicken owner. I purchased 5 day old sexed chicks (2 Easter Eggers, 1 Welsummer, & 2 Black Australorps) from Wagon Train Feed Store in Orange, CA. I'm pretty sure 4 of my 5 are female, but I'm concerned about the gender of my Australorp, Lavender, who is now 8 weeks old. Her body style is very different from my other Australorp, her tail feathers have a curl to them & she's been making a loud bawk/honk sound (not exactly a crowing noise, but different from the other gals). I would love some input if you think she is a "she" or a "he". Thanks!

Looking female.

Looking female.

x2 - looks pretty "girly" to me, too. With the BA cockerels I've had, they've looked like roos by 8 weeks.

that's a pullet.

If the other "Aussie" looks that different, can you post a pic of it?

Woohoo! You all are the best! Thank you for giving me some peace of mind.

I will try to post pics of my other Australorp as well so you can see the difference.
