How can you tell it’s a hen? For 6 weeks it has a big comb and it has red in its wattles. I’m new so trying to learn!

Pullet combs tend to range from yellow to a light pink (as seen here), cockerels will be a much darker red.

For the wattle, I would expect to see it sagging down more for a roo and also be the same darker red.

A prime example to look at is picture number 1 in https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/my-crew.1527057/
