What gender am I?

[NewChickMamaHere]

Hello,
I am new to chicken keeping. These are my first babies and I'm learning a lot. I have one of my 3 month old chickens that I'm just not sure what to call it, a hen or a roo?? I hope someone can help me figure it out please
So grateful for some help!

With the rust coloring on the wings and some pointy hackle feathers coming in, I think he's a very pretty cockerel.

Cockerel due to the pointy-ended hackle feathers. He's beautiful! Do you happen to know his mix?

A very handsome cockerel!

Thank you! I only know he's an Easter Egger. I don't any more about his background. I ended up having another Cockerel that is completely different than this one. They are both just beautiful!

Since you are new, I will explain that any chicken under one year old is either a pullet or a cockerel. They are not hens or roosters until mature at one year old. I do not know what this one is since it looks like a silkie and I will never have one. Happy chickening!

I think cockerel, but I am not 100% sure, also that doesn’t look like an Easter egger, although it could be as they are a mixed breed.
