Blue Isbar - Rooster or Pullet?

[Cyclonechick]

Hi Everyone, I hatched some rare eggs from a breeder and this one is an Isbar. Best I can tell a Blue Isbar. And for any Isbar experts out there, would love your input on if this is a roo. I believe I see enough hackles and some saddle feathers and of course the huge comb and wattles....but deep down inside I'm hoping someone says - oh that's a girl! lol! I'm not at all familiar with this breed so would love some guidance. Thank you!

Don't worry, I totally understand. I didn't want to except I had a cockerel when I had a bird that looked like this!

Yup! Didn't want to admit it till his saddles were the longest saddles I've ever seen.
