Thank you for the reply. By no means of mine expert but I read that you can tell by the redness of the comb and also the development of the tail. What's throwing me off is you can see she obviously it has a red comb her tail feathers are fully developed and rounded. Do you think it's definitely a Cockerel?
Definitely male, just a bit too young for visible male specific feathering. Those don't usually begin to develop until about 10 weeks of age, and can take several more weeks to be clearly visible.

View attachment 1066816 Pullet or Cockerel, breed?

How old is it? It looks like a barred rock cockerel.

my 2 RIR and EE

Hens

Thanks for your thoughts on Scrambled! This is Smidge .. she's tiny compared to the others her age ... she was billed as an EE but I'm wondering what you think! EE? Brown Leghorn? EE Brownleghorn cross? Something else? Probably 10 weeks old in these pictures. Thanks!

Brown leghorn pullet
 
11 weeks. I was told it's a barred rocks Americana mix

Cockerel

Can i get your opinion on gender of this 13 week old. I have several that are same breed, but this one is the only one with a rooster look.. largest comb of them all, thicker legs, tail feathers point down,, View attachment 1067585 View attachment 1067586 View attachment 1067587 View attachment 1067588 View attachment 1067590 View attachment 1067591 View attachment 1067592 .. but I figured at 13 weeks, it would be bigger. I have 2 blacks ones, same age, bigger combs, but htheir saddles feathers all go down. That's why I thought this ones comb would be bigger. Also all of the rest are super friendly, but this one is standoffish. You can see some of the others in the pictures and see the difference in combs. Thanks!

Could you get a really close standing picture?

I'm suspecting my one Rhode Island Red and one Ameraucana are cockerels and not pullets do to their combs and comb coloring but not sure

Both cockerels
