Do I have a hen or cockerel

[Betsyhill]

A friend gave me this chick a few days after I bought my ISA Brown chicks. He said it was a Dominique female. Well, I’m pretty sure it’s a Barred Rock because of its comb. I also am suspecting is is a cockerel. When I got it, it had a large single pinkish spot on its head, black fuzz, and was starting to grow wing feathers. At that point, he/she was about 1 week old, just a few days older than my ISA Browns. I’ve noticed that it tries to jump on my other chicks, and is sometimes aggressive. The comb is also much larger and red than my ISA’s. Do I have a rooster?

Yes, you are right, it's a barred rock. I can't say for sure if it's a rooster tho.

Definitely a BR. Do you know it's age?

I’m pretty certain it’s about 6-8 weeks old.

You have a cockerel.
