The noun for a male gull is a cock; the noun for a female gull is a hen.

Although there are some words in English that are gender-specific for animals like "steer" for a male bovine or "lioness" for a female lion, seagull in English is gender-neutral and can refer to either a male or female bird.

English as a language also does not have grammatical genders.
