Please help me....I think it looks like a hen, it has no waddle or spurs but yet it crows every morning. We do have 11 chickens, (no roosters other than possibly this one) and have read they can take on rooster traits and crow. Its definitely the more aggressive one of the bunch. It’s only 5 months old
Rooster or hen?

Easter egger cockerel
100% cockerel. Sorry.
Definitely a male.
Peacomb is three rows, and females with a peacomb have a much less pronounced comb (at this age, even if red) and won’t have three rows of bumps.
Saddle and hackle feathers are evident.

Sorry but I agree, that's a cockerel.

Have to agree, huge comb and wattles for the age, male specific saddle feathers coming in, and the crowing all leaves no doubt this is a male.
