Sorry about not explaining. I looked at it's tail feathers and they are a bit curved? Other than that, I'm not 100% sure if it's a rooster. Have you seen it's wing when it was a chick?
A hen's wing looks like this

Also, a males comb is redder than a hens when they are 7 weeks old.
When it's 10 weeks, males have shiny-ish feathers.

I took a guess that it was a rooster. Now I'm thinking it over and it looks like a hen.

Curved under or up hints that it's a rooster? I purchased this chick in a pullet box but I know they can't be 100% certain. This chick is only 4 weeks old. Thanks for your help!
