We consistently thought our Rhode Island red was a hen. Then it’s crown sprouted in a week. Is it a hen or rooster? About 10-11 weeks old.

If it's the one on the right (of the 3) then probably a rooster. I can see longer feathers on the shoulders. Keep an eye on the feet and legs, if these get larger than the siblngs then there is little doubt. Good luck.
