Ameracauna hen or too?

[LivReigns]

I have a blue Ameracauna, that's about six months old, and i cant tell if this is a roo or a hen. Ive named it Smoke and it hasnt started crowing and ive had it since about four weeks of age. My first Ameracauna, actually. Can anyone take a guess to the gender?

 

[TheKindaFarmGal]

Definitely a cockerel.

With that comb and patchy color I say roo too.

I agree that it's a cockerel. Does it has feathered feet and yellow legs? If so it's not an Ameracauna.

Agree that's a cockerel. Not that it may matter so much since you're not getting eggs anyway, but he's also not an Ameraucana. I think I see faint barring in his hackles and saddle area, and he looks to have feathered legs? My guess is an Olive Egger. Could be something like an Ameraucana x Marans....

Very handsome cockerel, though I also don't think he's a pure Ameraucana.

Ah, that's okay. I'm not upset that he's not pure Ameracauna. I'm glad to know his gender finally though. The curiosity was driving me nuts. He's a very sweet roo.

 

[Alexandra33]

He's beautiful and nice, that's what matters most.

agree with donrae cockerel, I saw the barring and thought "what?"

in the first picture you can see he has feathered feet. He's a good looking boy and nice to know he is sweet.
