Is this 12 week old Brahma a pullet or cockerel? Please help!

I thought they are a pullet because the comb is not very large, but the wattles are throwing me off. Someone said all the brown means it’s a rooster, but is feather color really an indicator of gender? I don’t know, I’m not experienced with this breed unfortunately.

Definitely male, that rust-red coloring stretching around its shoulders is male-specific feathering that starts cropping up at about this age. It's especially noticable on blue/grey birds. Brahmas don't have significantly large combs, male or female. They also tend to be slow-growing, with males maturing a bit later than a lot of other breeds.

Some patterns have a gene that causes the females to have the salmon colored breast and the males to have red on their shoulder area. So yeah with some patterns it is an indicator of gender but not every bird that has red on its back is automatically a male.
I would guess that is what's going on with yours and it is a cockerel. The comb may not seem too big because it's a pea comb or possibly because brahmas are very slow to mature.
