How old is it?

 

[ucleggs]

16 wks I think

To me, and I'm no pro at this, but I think the comb and waddles look a bit large for a hen at 16 weeks.

Tough call. Here's a photo of my JG hen at 17 weeks. She's got pretty well developed comb and wattles.

I'd like to see the saddle of him/her in brighter light to see if you can see saddle feathers or not.

Tough call. My JG hen did have waddles at that age, but hers never really got really red until 5 months. You should check and see if she/he has spurs yet. By 16 weeks, they would be coming out of legs and prick your finger.

I would say roo... here are my 14 week olds

I would guess rooster.

I have found him a home. Thank God! Meanwhile, here are the hackle feathers for confirmation. He looks exactly like your roo, silkiemomma!
