New to site and first time raising chickens. Was supposed to be a pullet, but is bigger than the other two BR's I purchased at same time. I'm especially noticing it's feet and legs are heavier/thicker than the other two. Did I end up with a roo?

Updated face pic. That's a waddle coming in, yes? S/he squawked it's head off that I managed to catch it. My other two BRs are much friendlier and will jump up on my lap or climb up on my shoulder if I manage to catch them, but this one is always aloof. Resized_20210426_174422.jpg
 
It helps to have others to compare it with. If the comb and wattles are larger and more red than they are on the others, it’s likely a cockerel. Are the legs thicker? It the bird in question larger than the others?
