Red Pyle, sexing diffilculty

[Christinecam]

Hello! I've been doing a significant amount of reading throughout this site and finally have joined. I have found the info to be a great help.
And now, I need help! I've just received this beautiful red pyle and am thinking...Roo?! She/he is about 4-5 months old, large, no comb growth, bearded so cannot detect waddles, a few streamers.If any one has thoughts I would greatly appreciate it. Being an urban chicken keeper, I cannot have roo's (sigh), and would hate to get attached and then have to re-home.

Really need a photo of bird squarely facing front with CREST pulled back or tied up, to display full extent of comb. You have a gorgeous silkie, but, would love to check out the comb

Its a male.
I have a couple red pyle birds and the red on the females is restricted to the breast and little on hackles. Only the males have red up on the shoulders and back.

He started crowing shortly after the photo!
