Hen or roo?

[Louiesdad910]

We got 4 chicks 14 weeks ago. They were all labeled pullets, but one is quite a bit larger. They were supposed to be two amber links and two black sex links. The ambers are hens I’m sure but one of the blacks is questionable. They were purchased at a local feed, store not tractor supply. I took the bird in question to the shop and the owners showed me similar looking birds from “the same batch”. A friend of mine purchased 4 the same day (white spots on heads) he was looking for new roos to raise up. His are now barred pattern and black and white my bird in question is not so I’m very confused based on its size and how much more developed it’s wattle and comb is compared to the rest of the group.

Can you post a picture of the bird's saddle feathers? From the pictures you shown so far though I think you have a pullet

It’s the most skittish of the bunch so I apologize if the photos are not the best.

Saddle feathers are rounded, definitely a pullet

Thank you that’s a relief

I had 2 black sexlinks who looked entirely different. This will happen.
