Gender/breed of this purported lemon lace Orpington?

[TXPeepShow]

To answer the questions in the pinned post:
1. Where did you get the birds?
Ellis County Poultry Trade Days
2. Are they from a feed store, hatchery, or breeder?
Breeder. Purportedly lemon lace Orpington but neighbors told me that’s a myth. (Google is confusing.)
3. If you bought them from a hatchery, which breeds did you select?
N/A
4. If they came from a breeder, what were they supposed to be, and what other breeds/varieties did the seller have?
Breeder had a wide variety, including many types of Orpingtons and Wyandotte. This is supposed to be a Lemon Lace Orpington.
5. If they were bought at a feed store, what breeds or varieties were listed?
N/A

I’d love to know how:
1. How old do y’all think this chick is?
2. Boy or girl?
3. Could (s)he be a frizzle?
4. Are lemon lace Orpingtons an actual breed or just a marketing term?

Thank you!

You should wait until it's 6-8 weeks old to sex it. "Lemon laced" is definitely not a normal Orpington variety. The only lemon variety I know of is lemon cuckoo which is fairly common. I assume it's that but I can't tell project varieties at this age. Honestly when it's like 12 weeks old+ it'll be easier. It doesn't look to be frizzled!

What is the breeder's name? If they carry Wyandottes too, it might be some project they're doing!

I got a little chicken crazy and didn’t pay attention to the breeder’s name

I got her 2 weeks ago and she’s gigantic compared to the other chicks i got that day! I think maybe she’s 3-4 weeks?
