Dad is a white leghorn and mom is a buff Orpington. Any thoughts or guesses on gender of this chick? Thanks!

I wanted to update y’all on what he looks like now in case anyone wants a reference of what this cross roo would look like. This is Harvey today at about 10 months old. He is a very good roo - breaks up fights between hens and does not try to attack me. I have not seen him in action protecting the girls from a predator though.
