Thanks I was hoping it was a pulley but it has a long curly tail feather sticking up

Yeah, I can see how that could be confusing. Here's a black rooster (not my picture):

You can see the saddle and hackle feathers are long and pointed

On your hen they're shorter and rounded:

You can also tell by the comb. A rooster's comb will be large and bright red at only 6 weeks of age and a hen's comb will turn red right before they lay. There's a lot of good articles on sexing chickens here on BYC if you're interested.
