Is This a Buff Orpington?

I got chicks from TSC and said that they were buff orpington but it was a buff minorca.
I was sold this chick at a few days old from a feed store as a Buff Orpington. Now I’m wondering if it’s something else as all the pictures I see online, Buff Orpingtons are much lighter and my chick is darker. My chick is now 6 weeks old. And any guesses on gender would be great too! Thanks!

I am wondering if I have the same breed(s) as you! i have one that's about 3.5-4 weeks sold to me as buff orpington pullet .. but from my other post I'm learning shes not .. yellow legs and a darker red color.

Here’s an updated picture of my girl, she’s like 9 weeks now? Yours does look super similar! One thing I’ve noticed with mine is her legs are yellow but her feet are pink.

Looks like a rhode island red roo to me.

I was worried someone would say that.. she does stand a little more upright than my others .. I hope not as one of my bantams is a cockerel (favorite chick) and if he continues to behave and be a little gentleman we decided to keep him and I definitely cannot have 2 roosters with my size flock. 🙏
 
Here’s some updated pictures. She has pretty much the smallest comb of all my birds. She’s 10 weeks now. Still think she could be a roo?
