Rooster, probabley.

At this age hens can have large red combs and wattles as they get ready to lay. A rooster at this age would likely be crowing and have pointed feathers on the back in front of the tail. (Unfortunately my eyes are not good enough to say for sure if feathers are all rounded), but my guess would be all pullets.

That’s a fast developing pullet. A male will have double barring making it look whiter.

That is true for pure breeds where roosters are double barred. @Bribbywilson where did your birds come from? Do you know if they are pure bred?

Welcome to BYC!

I see all pullets, the one you're specifically asking about is probably faster maturing.

We got them at tractor supply. They're supposedly cuckoo maran

Hello and welcome to BYC!

Looks like a pullet to me for the age, lack of crowing and no saddle or hackle feathers.

Make yourself at home here!
