6 week Barred Rock-Gender?

[sunrise_homestead]

This is our first hatch from our own eggs and is finally 6 weeks old... and my husband and I have differing opinions on gender. Haha, can anyone help us figure out if I'm right?...or if he's right? Thank you!

Whoever is saying cockerel is correct.

I would guess roo. The comb and wattles are quite red. But don’t take my word for it wait for more experienced people to comment.
Good luck!

Cockerel. He’s double barred and has a big red comb.

Absolutely a cockerel, if that were my bird I would have zero doubts he was male

Thank you so much! Haha, my husband was correct and maybe gloating a bit. Thanks again!

That bird has so much white, he looks almost grey. A female, by contrast, looks closer to black, much darker. Do you have other barred birds for contrast?
