Here's a fun youtube on how to tell a rooster from a hen at 9 weeks of age:
So here is my EE posted almost 2 weeks ago. I am almost positive it is pullet! Can anyone confirm, almost 9 weeks this Saturday!

At 8 to 9 weeks old, the only gender indicators are comb/wattle development and plumage coloring. Male specific feathering doesn't usually begin to develop until about 10 weeks old, and can take several more weeks to be really visible.
 
Your babies are beautiful!! We already have the baby in the coupe for a couple of weeks with the older chickens but in a kennel so the older chickens can't hurt her! So I will start introducing them this weekend during treat time and free range! Thanks again for your help!!
 
yeah and i have school poor guy misses his only friend!
It's never easy losing a chick or chicken I've been through it luckily I have many so I don't have to worry about loners. You could add another chick around the same age or start new and keep them separate but where they can see each other there are facebook groups where you can buy sell and trade poultry in nearly every region just look up your area you'd be surprised
