Cockerel or Pullet?

Roger that. The yellow leg is thicker as well. Only half the bird has green highlight feathers as well, split down the middle.
I am still stuck in the middle of the road on believing it to being boy or girl. We have been just calling it "it", instead of him or her. Just waiting for the crowing to start. A month-ish away from crowing or egg dropping. The suspense is killing me.
All birds should be able to be sexed at 4 months and 20 days old. So that is what makes this situation unique more than the multi colored legs.:pop

^^^ lord of the feed lololol!

I wouldn't hold out for eggs. See the solids patches on the wings. That and those are some pointy saddle feathers. I am curious what breed he is though

Mother was a full breed Barred Rock. But the fathers, maybe 12 to 15 different ones to choose from. Some of the cockerels were 2nd and 3rd generation crosses.
Pinky (hen) was running with the "boy's club" before the guy's left for freezer camp. She carried a gallon of male reproductive fluids from a dozen or more various gentlemen. All I have left is photos of the mob of birds from back in December. Comparing pics concludes nothing.
That's why in my original post I stated I wasn't concerned with the breed, just the sex. I know she/he is a multi generation cross. There are 6 special birds from that hatch. It was part of a BYC Project. That also makes this bird more notable. Without that BYC Project, this situation would not exist. I would not be setting eggs in the dead of winter normally. So that aspect makes this anomaly even more unique.
