8 week old unsexed RIR, we think roo but not sure

[BascoSweet]

Hello everyone! I'm new to this site and relatively new to chickens too. We got 6 chicks about 2 months ago and 5 were sexed pullets and the RIR were unsexed so we decided to take the gamble. They're about 8 weeks old now and we think we have a little boy. What do ya'll think?

Welcome to BYC! You may be right, but RIR's do have bigger combs than other breeds. Here was my RIR hen when she was 12 weeks:

I just wanted to update this because it was a while ago, he did end up being a boy. He's a big, loud boy now but we still love him very much.
