Lavender Orpington cockerel or pullet?

Hi there! Judging by your cockerel's age, does everyone think mine is a hen? Mine is the same age (15.5 weeks old) but has more prominent wattles than our other lavender orp who hatched on the same day (we got day-olds from Meyer), so it's making me worry!

Looks like a she to me. Her legs are smaller boned than the cockerel's (characteristic in females) and, as junebuggena said, the comb and wattles are not as bright and are only just starting to show prominence. :) If she where to be a cockerel, she would be considerably larger than the others by now as well.
