Roo or hen?

[Jhymel]

Himalaya is just over 5 months old, and I'm starting to think she is a he. She/he always tries to fight everything, himalaya is a very feisty chicken. Do you guys think it's a roo?

I'm going to say pullet.

It's a cockerel. Also, I can't see it very well, but does he have a single comb instead of walnut?
He is a cockerel based on the comb size at this age, plus the streamer feathers and more upright posture.

It does have a single comb. I thought it looked like there were streamers too. But the tail had me thinking it was a roo.

If it's not crowing or trying to by now I would say a pullet but the tail feathers don't look as pom pom looking as a pullet should. Maybe it's just the camera angle.

The tail feathers aren't in a pom pom shape they used to be, the feathers are starting to poke out and curve down.

I've also havent heard it try to crow yet.

I'm going with pullet because the wattles are not defined and at this age they should be a little more developed if it were a roo.
