So I’m wondering if my Black Australorp chick is a rooster?

We have 28 chickens and we’ve never had a rooster before. We have 9 chicks that are about 2 months older. This chick is much bigger then the rest of them and it’s comb and waddles are forming much faster then the rest of the chicks! We do have another Black Australorp chick and she doesn’t look anything like the other. So can anyone help me out!

Age? Looks to be a cockerel:(
 
How old is this little one? It s/he is older, then I say s/he could still be a possible hen. If s/he's still quite young, I'm calling cockerel.
It’s about 8-9 weeks old. It’s the only one that has a comb out of 9!

It’s hard to tell without seeing it in person but it looks like a rooster, another way that might help is our chicks who turn out to be roosters usually have a redder cone.
