Orpington - cockerel or pullet?

[shamr0ck]

This is Thomas, so named because his comb reddened up very early. However, now he is 13 weeks old, and I am not seeing any obviously male characteristics, while one of the others from the same batch is double the size of the rest and is clearly starting to look male. I have read that orpingtons can be slow to mature, and this is my first personal experience with them. Can anyone give me a better idea what I'm looking at here?

Did not get a great side shot, but i included one with two of his hatch mates that I believe to be girls.

Thanks!

That's a cockerel, no doubt in my mind.

leg thickness and redness in the comb make me think cockerel, Don't see any other signs that scream cockerel to me though, I'd wait another week or two and you should get a definite answer..

I'd wait a few more weeks. Nothing screams cockerel to me yet.
