Pullet or cockerel? Ee or americauna?

[Mlssygd]

I was told this was a Rhode Island Red. It has puffy cheeks, is it an Americauna? Also started crowing yesterday and today at 11 weeks old. Are there any other indicators that this is a cockeral that anyone can tell me? I don't see a difference in feathering besides that thicker part on it's head/neck. Help!!

Definitely not a Rhode Island Red. He’s an Easter egger cockerel!

Yeah it's a cockerel. You can tell by the red comb. As for what he is, he's an Easter Egger. Americauna is a fancy name for EEs

Easter Egger cockerel. You can tell he's a he by the red comb and uneven feather pattern.

Here is his counterpart. I got 4 total, is this a eeaster egger as well? Pullet, I don't notice as much red comb. The other two I got are definitely pullets of another breed though. Will post pics.
