Lavender Orpington hen or roo?

[gotpoodle]

7.5 weeks old...my green queen just started crowing, so I really hope this bird is a girl! Am I seeing boy feathers?!

it looks like a boy to me. sorry. it could be a pullet, but mine had a smsaller comb then that at 9 weeks and was a roo.

Agree, looks like a cockerel

Thank you both. Anyone else had a well developed orp that turned out to be a hen?
It looks like I'll be looking for homes for two of the five 'sexed females' from this batch of chicks.
