Easter Egger - rooster?

We're new to chickens and are trying to determine whether this EE is a rooster. She acts differently from the other chickens and is larger. (Longer tail, too). We only have two EE - the other is smaller. Our other chicks are Buff Orphingtons and Barred Rocks. Any thoughts? I believe they are 2 1/2 - 3 months old. Thanks!

I'm 90% sure that's a hen, especially at 2-3 months... a roo would have a much larger, redder comb. Plus, her coloring is very muted, not splashy at all. Her legs are slimmer than a roo's would be. Though I have been wrong

She looks similar to my Loretta - although you can't really see her tail here. Loretta is one year old. Definitely a girl!
