Break my heart and tell me this is a cockerel 😢

[MikeMorgan]

Buff Orpington, easily the chicken that I bonded with the most over the last few months. Horrible pasty butt and illness as a chick, brought it back up and it is 100% my favorite of the flock now. Starting to notice some things that make me think it may be a rooster. I'll be heartbroken but it will give me some time to hopefully find a decent home for it. No roosters in my city limits. Thanks for any help!

Age? Comb is big, but not red.

Though I think I may see some hackles and saddles?

Definitely Cockerel. Those are saddle feathers. Pretty clear ones too

It's a cockerel, I see the reddish color band on It's wing.
