Buff Orpington pullet or rooster?

Hi All,

I have a buff Orpington that is about 16 weeks old and I’m having a hard time telling if it is a boy or a girl. It is a relatively silent bird, but is bigger and more aggressive than the other members of its flock (a welsummer and barred rock). Its tail feathers have also become quite long in the last couple of weeks. My gut tells me rooster, but any confirmation would help!
