What gender is this silkie?

This is rainbow she is about 15 weeks old and is super sweet. We were wondering is She is a pullet?

I think Rainbow is probably a cockerel with a comb and wattles that large. The legs are also thick. A picture of the bird standing up, that catches the whole body including comb and tail, would help a lot for a more definite answer, because it is a little strange that you haven't heard any crowing by that age.

These are the photos I have of her currently but her owner did say that she squatted when she tried to pick her up and the feathers are the hen coloring for the breed we think she is (partridge silkie)

Sure looks like a cockerel to me too.
