Is my young chicken a roo? HELP

[SavageMomster]

I have an approx. 12 week old Blue Laced Red Wyandotte. It has started crowing around 5am. I did notice is is quite larger than the other Blue Laced Red Wyandotte I have that is the same age but I want to know for sure. I have been trying to look at the feathers to tell but it's tough, I think because it is still pretty young. Just wondering what the odds are that the crowing means its a rooster and whether it's worth keeping around for a bit just to be sure or if I should send it off to a roo rescue so I can sleep past 5. Looking for opinions/info on this...

Kinda looks cockerel to me, but I’m not amazing at telling gender

It's a cockerel.

It has started crowing

That would be a dead giveaway.

At 12 weeks the saddle and hackle feathers are just starting to grow,
could be a few more weeks until they are obvious.

Yes. Male

That is definitely a cockerel.
