Gold Laced Orpington... Rooster?

[JanvierUK]

I'm growing increasingly suspicious that Elizabeak here (perched on the door frame) is actually a rooster. Pointier and shinier feathers than their sister, only one with a comb and waddle coming in. They are 3 months old though, so I'd have expected it to be more obvious by now if Elizabeak was actually male. Could just be a fast grower. I'd appreciate an outside opinion!

Yup you have a cockerel.

I agree, I believe that's a cockerel.

Yep, he's a cockerel. They are so pretty when they get older.

I'd say cockerel as well.

UPDATE: Yup! A rooster and a very lovely one! He crowed for the first time on Sunday and I was able to get it on camera this morning.
