he or she?

I bought what was said to b 2 hens. lavender ORP. They look a lot different and I am in question of one being a hen. This is the bird in question. Please help. Shout out hen or roo?

Oh 4 months old btw

that's a cockerel that looks to be about 5-6 months old based on that saddle development

Yay I am so thrilled u confirmed my suspicion. That means I have 1 of each which is wonderful. I thought it was too big to b 4 months old but I was told it is because they r very large birds.
The reasoning they gave me that it had to b a hen was that their game rooster did not kill it.
