I brought 3 RiRs and thay are about 19 weeks old now but this one looks like a roo to me but im not sure it allways pecks at me in a nice sort of way



it has a larger comb and wattle to the others its tail fethers are getting longer caint see any sign of spurs,

heres a pic of all 3

 
Tough one. It's lacking back feathers. I'd keep an eye to make sure saddle feathers do not grow in. I'm leaning towards cockerel, but this one is a little tricky to see by your photos. Side(where the wing is not hiding the back end) and comb shots would help.:)

That's a rooster.:(. I can clearly see the saddle feathers. He's beautiful though.

RIR's are one of my favorite breeds and eggs, I just picked up another RIR chick a few days ago.

Here's is my 1 year old hen
