Is Bob a cockerel or pullet

Are these new pics of Bob or your other one with the deformed wing?

Bob is a Murray mcmurray ameracauna. So Bob is an Easter egger. Bob was sexed a female but gives major cockerel vibes. Bob is 4 and half weeks. Does anything point to cockerel or pullet yet? Bob pooped in my floor to let me get these photos
I feel your pain on being duped by McMurrays...my husband was as well. As for our experience, we ordered 6 sr, recieved 6 + 1 mystery bird. 1 of them we spent 19 weeks completely convinced it was a rooster...until she laid the 1st egg of the flock 🤣 🤣 🤣 She had a VERY roosterish tail until she popped out that 1st egg!!
There were a few others we were told were roosters bc of their colors (the orange/black ones) but oddly enough ALL 7 were females!!! There was only 1 bird in the entire flock I was almost positive was a pullet from early on. The rest of them we honestly couldn't figure out until 15-16 weeks. I say keep it until you hear it crow.

Oh I definitely will. I love Easter eggers so it's totally fine. Mine are pets anyway:)
 
So far the pattern says pullet, but the comb says more of a cockerel. I'm on the fence and I think this one needs more time. If the comb starts getting red soon its probably a cockerel, if not, and the comb stays mostly the same in color and size its probably a pullet.

Thank you! You were right on my other one :)
