Hen or Roo?

Hen or Roo?

These gals are probably around 10-12 weeks old. They were sexed at our local Wilco. 4 Easter Eggers out of the 6. I’m worried this one might be a roo. Body type is lankier, tail feathers are longer and getting a shade of green to them. No behavior though that would lead me to believe it’s a roo, FWIW. This is my first time with chickens.
