i dont know about 4 months
well this has hatcheed in the same day with the grey oneIf is is 4 months it is probably female, but if it is younger male feathering may not have appeared yet and could be male. In your second photo the saddle feathers look a bit long to me, but I can't be sure. Cute bird either way!
and this doesnt have wattles which proves that the yellow one is a pelletView attachment 1686890

well i thought that this is rooster because it started crowing yesterday which i heard only one time and today i heard it crowing four timesThey are probably both pullets. Usually the comb and wattles would be larger and darker red in cockerels by that age.

he doesnt do anything if a rooster doesnt try fighting him but if it tries to pick a fight he wont let it go without making him coverd in blood but the grey one isnt trying to pick a fight or trying to mate hens so the big rooster doesnt attack the grey oneAnd it does sound like a 'learning to crow' sound.
Sometimes it's just hard to say. I've heard sometimes a rooster will be slow to mature if there is an older more dominant rooster near. But if they are really 4 months old, I would still think it's comb and wattles would be a bit redder and larger.
How does your adult rooster act around this bird, especially when it attempts to crow?

ok we will know in two weeks if ot doesnt stop crowing or if it perfects crowing it is a rooster see you after two weeksI guess only time will tell. She will either lay eggs or continue and perfect the crow. lol
I'm sure that big rooster knows!
Maybe you can post another pic as she/he matures more or lays and egg?
