What gender is this beautiful chick?

I’m new at chicks. We have 18 different breeds. Four of which were supposed to be Easter Egger. Someone said they thought this chick was a Rooster. Do you agree? What traits distinguish between hens and roosters? They were hatched around May 24, 2023

Welcome to chickenhood. Lol This chicken has rust color on the wings which is usually in males. And if I stare hard enough, the fine thin feathers toward the tail may be male saddle feathers. The pretty ones are usually male since they have a variety of patchwork colors. Post some more photos and see what others say.

That red usually means a cockerel. Can you get pictures of the comb?

I bet I can. Let me look through my recent pictures. I also want to show a picture of a EE from the same hatchery that looks just like this one and I’m assuming it’s a hen.

I’m not that good at this but that comb resembles my 8 week old pulleys comb

Pullet not pulley

It’s definitely gotten a darker color this last few days.
