Help! My BO hen is crowing! Hen or Roo?

[Chicka wow wow]

I ordered a Buff Orpington hen online. It is now 10 weeks old and has started crowing! Is this a rooster or hen? I have heard some hens make crowing noises. Please help...hen or roo?

I’ve never bought anything but pullets . That crowing thing is how I’ve discovered all my roosters. Then the physical characteristics evolved.

Thank you for the replies! I’m so sad, we can’t have roosters in our neighborhood. I will have to re-home him.
