Looks like the spangle has his tail feathers. Other than stumpy wings which doesn't always pan out, I watch for the tail feathers growing differently to tell boy from girl.

It is definately a male. You can tell because the roosters get glossy neck feathers and feathers on the rump that are sickle shaped. The comb and wattles are also indicative of a male. I don't know how to explain it because I just know when I look at it that it is male. Also look for the sickle shaped feathers on the tail, but in old english they often take a while to develop.
