I think my Ameracauna is a girl ... no crowing yet, and she looks hennish. But those iridescent tail and wing feathers, and the plumage that looks suspiciously like hackles and saddle feathers ... and the upright stance ... what do you guys think? Bernice or Bernard?
I vote roo. The red on his sides say roo to me. Also I am pretty sure I am seeing some saddle feathers back there. But don't put him in the pot because of what I say...I am not 100% sure.
220% cockerel. it has pointed hackle feathers, plus the deep dark red on the wings like that is a cockerel only thing. the irradcent green on the tail any black chicken will have.
