Help! Is this 5 months old chicken a rooster or a hen? And can anyone guess the breed too?

Hard to tell, but looks like a boy.

I'm confused as hell, man. Neither it crows nor it lays eggs. Other chickens of it's age started laying eggs but there it is still unknown about its role.

looks like a red sussex cock. Not much sign of the silent slate gene

I would still say a rooster, because of the pointy neck feathers.

Which side do you lean on?

Cockerel

Is it normal for a chicken to grow this late compared to it's siblings who started to lay eggs but this one right here neither crows nor lays eggs? How long do I have to wait for this "cockerel" to crow?

What’s making you all say cockerel?

It’s five months old - no hackle feathers.... I say pullet - a Black sex link
