The head looks like a pullet but it almost looks like saddle feathers coming in and the curl in the tail feathers looks cockerel to me.
 
At 4 months definitely a pullet. I would expect a much redder comb at 16 weeks from even a slow developing cockerel.
 
My guess is also pullet. We currently have a few Ameraucana cockerels that are 4 months old and their combs are much larger and redder than your Olive Egger's.
