Looks like a triple pea to me.However, at 9 weeks her comb has really been growing this last week or two and now is starting to look cockerel-ish.
9 weeks too young for gender specific feathering.
Give it another few weeks at least.

However unlikely it would seem, I’m leaning towards cockerel. Maybe your’s is the 1% they get wrong?I will get better body shots tomorrow unless I can find some good ones from earlier this week in my camera roll.
I took feathers at 6 weeks and this easter egger (opal legbar x a "blue egg layer") came back as female. However, at 9 weeks her comb has really been growing this last week or two and now is starting to look cockerel-ish. I am new to peacombs and only have on fast developing cockerel to compare her too (same age but he has pointed feathers including the sickle tail feathers, very red and developed pea comb, and crows since 8 weeks).
Do all your chicks have the same parents?
