He is slightly bigger than most of my other black ones (australorp mix to get the peacomb)
Thicker legs.
I still cant tell by feathers or pea comb male vs female.
I will get one of just the comb at lunch today.
But I suspect this one:

Thoughts?

Looks like a pullet to me. Better pictures would be very helpful.

This is a Ameraucana/ RIR mix at 10 weeks old. He had a modified pea comb but it gives you a comparison.

This red pullet is the same cross and comb type as the above rooster. She’s almost 15 weeks and still very little comb development in color or size. Your bird looks more similar to her.

As for the leg comparison I have a Cinnamon Queen (RIR/Wyandotte) who puts the roosters to shame with her chunky legs. Also an Orpington cross hen I hatched, years ago, did the same. There are some beefy hens out there.

This is helpful too! Your roosters put to shame with their legs, lol! This is good to know. Thank you!
 
Okay, some better pictures:
