Is my 9 wk old Black Copper Marans a pullet or cockerel?

[FrostyAndAlert]

I've had my eye on this one for weeks and I am suspicious that I may have a roo. Comparing this one to the sister I can see that the legs are thicker and the comb and wattle is more pink/red. This week the feathers are really starting to convince me that it's a cockerel. Thanks in advance for your help!

What do you think?

First pic is at 9 weeks old today and with me at 7 weeks old.

I see that too. There is just enough to make you wonder. Do you know about how old they are when they start crowing?

I like the idea that this one may be a cockerel. This is one of my sweetest chickens. If it is a roo, I am hoping to be able to keep him.

Could go either way....dark comb and wattles for such a young age.....

Pullet. She’s a bit mossy too.
