Hen or roo? 

Picked up around March 22. Sold as ~8 week old olive egger backcross to BCM pullet. Last two photos are from the first week, first several photos are today. The comb is much bigger and redder than the other two pullets I got at the same time, it’s been pretty friendly and confident but is now getting a bit rude with the others. The feathers have really been changing a lot in the last two weeks. I know there’s no way to truly know until I hear a crow or see an egg, but it’s really looking to me like a cream legbar rooster.
I don’t want/need a rooster, and of course it’s my favorite, so I’m trying to prepare myself lol.
