I'm leaning pullet for now. The lacing is clear and consistent, and in my experience of seeing 40+ wyandotte chicks grow, the roos consistently start developing the messy/solid unlaced feathers on their shoulders/wings about this age. Comb/waddle development is an indicator, but is less conclusive than plumage, IMO.

Here's a post with the red shoulder patches on a 13wk old golden laced wyandotte cockerel: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/13-wk-golden-laced-wyandotte-a-hen-or-rooster.1120752/. This is what you'll be looking out for over the next couple of weeks.
 
Thinking about it. The Wyandotte is probably more 12 weeks now.
