I would appreciate any help. There is no red, but seems to have a good forming crown happening so this is confusing. Tail feathers seem pointed rather than rounded. I only have one other chicken that was a stray that wondered into my yard last spring that I rescued from the cold winter and she is a hen laying eggs so I guess it doesn’t mater if Roo or hen. just Don’t want babies in future lol. And trying to get these two to like each other.

Pullet. In my experience the Roos don't have the same white scale pattern. It's more streaky on the wings. Also I found pullets have large tail at that age. And of course substantial wattles dropped down quick.
Attached is a pic of mine around 8-10 weeks I believe. 2 pullets and a cockeral on the right.
