Male or female 14 weeks old

Got this chicken from Hoovers hatchery in the colored egg layers assortment. I’m assuming it’s crossed with a legbar because of the crest. Tiny comb and not much reddening. The pics make its face look super red but it’s just wonky lighting. Very skiddish. What do you think?

I am not so sure, I am thinking cockerel - looks like saddle feathers to me.

Pullet- feathers can't always be a tell at this age

comb, redness, size and legs all scream pullet

Thank you!! We are so hoping for pullet. It’s my three year old daughters third try for picking a chick that’s not a rooster. She’s very excited you all think female! I was getting nervous because the coloring is so pretty and it seems like the pretty ones are always cockerels…
