Hen or roo? Australorp

No crow. No spurs about 6 months old could it be a hen? I've had mixed opinions

Cockerel. You can tell by the pointy thin saddle feathers and appearance of sickle feathers in the tail.

I agree, you have a cockerel

I used to have an Australorp Rooster and this is a Rooster. Pretty boy. We called him Mr Roo and talked to him and then he would crow. We got Mr Roo when he was close to a year old and he did crow.

Cockerel, definitely. Unless it starts laying eggs, which I would then call it a hen without reservation.
