We tried hatching 4 eggs we bought. Only 2 were fertile and 1 hatched. It is currently living with a disabled chicken we were hoping would get big enough to butcher....

Anyhows, I would really like to find out what color it is and the sex.
It's a light reddish brown... has some white in the wings. Hold on while I get a picture of it.

Also, it's just sprouting its crest.

It looks like an Indian Blue split to White or Pied. I see some barred feathers in the light so I'm thinking male and also the way you described the wing. Can you get a picture of the wing with light all the way across it? That will help sex it with best of accuracy. It's around one month having neck feathers coming in.
 
Yeah 1 month is close. I think it hatched in june.

Hmm. Yes, this was probably one of the eggs from the mixed pen.

I'll try, but I only have two hands :)
 
Sorry the photos aren't the best, a light went out in the room yesterday :/ so it's darker.
