This is a rooster ?

I think this is a pullet if she’s 5 month old, the comb and wattle aren’t that much red for that age of rooster. So I say pullet
Also if this was a rooster it would have more white in its wings like this one
Seconding the need for some side shots.
I’ll get some side shots tomorrow. What makes me think roo is the weird upright stance. His tail is missing feathers from when I first integrated the flock.

If it was a male, it would have long narrow saddle feathers just in front of the tail.
A pullet has wider feathers with rounded ends in that area.
Your bird has pullet feathers, not male saddle feathers, and not a bare spot.

Also, a male would have larger, redder comb and wattles at that age.

So you have pullet, even if she does stand funny.
