What breed am I? Pullet or Roo?

Curved and pointy at the tip. I don't have any personal experience with growing cochins, but I have followed a pair online, and by the time they were seven weeks old, the male had fairly pronounced rooish tail feathering, and also a larger comb and wattles. They were not blues, though. There was a blue in the batch but that was definitely a pullet.

I will look today. Maybe I should take a picture of its butt so everyone else can see. I have no idea what im looking for but ill give it a try.
 
these are two pictures of our blue cochin "miss marge" at 3 weeks - sure looks like the same breed to me -
we have three cochins altogether - a buff, a black splash, and this blue girl...

Hmm. I don't see anything particularly pointy in those tail feathers, but it's hard to tell from a picture.
These pictures are not mine, but they are of the[very light colored, but the head's darker] blue cochin pullet and the gold laced pair I followed online [they belong to Velvet Sparrow, and the pictures are by her] See the difference in tails between the pullet and the cockerel[in the back]? Ignore the mottled d'Uccle and whatnot else XD.
