I picked up my "girls" last week at 8 weeks old, yesterday I was out sitting with them and it struck me that one of the BO's had a large amount of head gear, the tail feathers are starting to droop down a bit and there appears to be little tiny bumbs developing on the back/side of it's leg's (tiny spurs maybe) I'm hoping it is just a matter of her/him being a little older than the others, but I'm starting to wonder.
What do you all think just from the picture attached. I can try to get a clearer shot of her/his backside (to include legs) if that would be more helpful. Thanks in advance.

She/He is the BO at the center of the picture.

I was afraid that is what I would hear. Thanks for responding. I would LOVE to keep him, but I'm not allowed roosters because of resrictions.

Looking at the head and the but feathers you can see in the pic, I would say Roo. As for spurs, even hens get little bumps sometimes, but they never develop.
