Olive Egger - pullet or cockerel?

[HollywoodHillsHens]

He’s 16 weeks old. No roo behavior, a tiny single comb and no spurs, but man, those tail feathers and coloring sure look male. Thoughts??

Looks female to me. I can’t see any male flashy feathers.

Its a pullet!

OH my. That is very interesting. Butt says Roo. all else says pullet. Very unusual for a 16 week old not to show what it really is by now. Over the past 30 years, I have only had 2 that I thought were hens, they grew 1" spurs, but otherwise looked hen. They never laid an egg, if rooster came close, they would fight them. kept them for 3+yrs. I was stumped. they were he/she's. or she/he's.
Please let us know if anything further developes on this unusual bird. I have seen pullets with just a slightly longer top tail feather, and thought/suspected rooster, but they were hens. This is interesting. We love learning and being surprised.

Pullet, a cockerel this age would show saddle feathers.

It's probably a pullet but I'm not totally convinced. Even disregarding the tail, something about this bird just says cockerel to me. Let us know when it lays an egg or crows. I am interested to know how this one turns out.

Thanks so much everyone!! Here are some updated photos. No new behavioral clues - no crowing or laying eggs but the entire flock is not laying due to the season.

Anyone want to update thoughts? Thanks!!

Those are cockerel tail feathers, even though the comb isn't even existent practically (even for a pea comb) those tail feathers do not belong to a pullet.

I still think cockerel. tried to post a moment ago and don't know what happen. don't see my post. just looks like feathers are pointy. body build just doesn't seem like a pullet.
