I thought I had 3 pullets and a cockerel, but this little EE pullet started growing a black feather in her tail and I’m curious if this could be indicative that she is a he, or if this is just a random occurrence.

It's just random and doesn't mean it's likely a male.
 
12 weeks! The cockerel in the group does have a significantly larger comb and body size, I just started wondering if my luck had been too good when 3/4 that hatched were pullets.
I think your luck is still good. I don't see any obvious signs this one is male. Think the black feather is just a fluke.
