Is my Columbian Wyandotte a Cockerel?

Hello! We have a Columbian Wyandotte named Pabla Escobar, who is 9 weeks old, and I love her, she looks awesome but she pecks the heck out of me sometimes. I've had other chickens of ours bite me from time to time but they always stopped and never did it again.

Pabla crouches down when I approach her with my hands and pecks pretty good, the other day she got a piece of my hand and wouldn't let go like a pit bull. I'm wondering if she is actually a he, as we have not experienced this behavior with any of our other chickens. Also, if not a male then any tips on how to curb that behavior?

Pictures below to help and thank you in advance!

Looking masculine. Wyandottes are notorious for taking forever and a day to mature, while also pinking up early though. Post updated pics in a few weeks.
 
She or he has been thick since a week old. Definitely the largest of the 9 chicks we got at the same time. I didn't have another Columbian Wyandotte to compare to but we did get a Blue Laced Gold Wyandotte and the Columbian is much larger than her and has been.

I'll post update pics eventually, thank you!

I know it's only been 12 days but here are pics from tonight of Pabla (possibly Pablo) lol.
