hey all! we have 3 chicks that are now a little over 3 months old. one seems like a definite roo, one seems like a definite pullet, and one really confuses me. we were sold this chick as an easter egger pullet (which she may or may not be because the so called "black sex link" turned out to be a jersey giant roo and she also has a straight comb/clean face). her comb and wattles seem too red to me which indicates roo, but i can't clearly see any male specific feathering (which our roo already has) and she doesn't act super rooster-like. here are pics of her for reference

here's the roo of the same age for reference:

any opinions appreciated!!
 
No idea if she's an easter egger (I don't recognize a breed, so I assume a mix of some sort?), but I'm leaning pullet. Her comb is red, but nothing else indicates rooster, and some breeds redden earlier than others.
