Hen or Rooster

[Charger7]

can anyone tell me if they think this 6 week old Easter egged is a hen or rooster. She is very bossy and makes a fourth of a crow noise in the morning when I let them out. What age do roosters start crowing? Tractor Supply had her labeled as a pulley. She is twice as big as my other girls as well.

Looks like a cockerel to me. His coloring has always meant roo in my easter eggers.

At that age, the indications are cockerel.
as for what age cockerels start crowing... That all depends on the cockerel. I've heard about some that didn't crow until they were roosters, and I've seen vids of young ones starting at a week old.

She/he tried to make a half/broken crow this morning

I would say most likely it's a cockerel. Especially if it's already attempting to crow.
