Brahma rooster or hen, help?

I disagree. This ia a pullett. The heckle feathers are too rounded. See my Brahma Roo below:

that's only because yours is older.

OP’s bird is still young. Mates with hens, red/well-developed comb & wattles, plus male specific feathering. You can’t see those pointy saddle feathers? It’s a Cockerel.
Yes!
regardless of hackles, both of your birds have male specific saddle feathers. Her's is still young and will grow in the hackles.

UPDATE: I put him outside the run to free range. All of a sudden my nine 12 wk old pullets came off the perch and started running in the outdoor run. I take that as another sign that it was a cockeral. He was free ranging nicely, I left him alone for an hour when I came back he was gone. Nature's way of reducing the roo count. Ty everyone for helping me identify
