Is my she a he?

Her facial features look hen but those pointy feathers are confusing me. View attachment 3635630
Congratulations! It's a BOY!
He's a handsome fellow, though. His beetle-shine is impressive. If it shows up that well in a backyard photo, he must be GORGEOUS in-person (in-chicken?)

I don't disagree, hence this
He never grew a comb or waddle like his brother. He looks just like his hen sister. Ah well, looks like we have more on the give away list. He's super sweet anyway.

Yup, that's because this looks like a pea comb. I'm sorry you have to give him away
 
Without a doubt, a cockerel. Do not let the face fool you when the chicken has sickles; note that all feathered chickens have saddle feathers and hackle feathers no matter their gender, but only males can have sickle feathers.

What about this one?? I thought Roo but lately maybe hen. Also some pointy feathers
Also a cockerel, no hen is going to have sickle feathers unless she has some bad hormone issues.
