Hen or rooster? 4 weeks old BO

[PlymouthRocky504]

Got my BO chick at 4 weeks now, hoping it’s a hen but not sure? Got images but has got a big tail and feature wings are full length which could contribute more to a hen?

It's not a BO just so you know. And I am leaning toward cockerel but it is much too young still. You should update in a few more weeks so that we can be positive about it!

So, it's a mixed breed, not a purebred.

I could be wrong but I really think it is a hen.

I’ve noticed it hasn’t developed any waffles let tho so wouldn’t that lean it more to a hen with the fast tail and wing growth as cockerels tend to have shorted wings that don’t grow right to the back and smaller tails at first when chicks compared to hens
