So the one in back is a Blue Ameraucana, from a local breeder. She's a he then? Okay, another for craigslist. Another pic of him I took just now (sorry it's blurry):

She stands upright and is bigger than the Barnevelder pullet we have who's the same age. Lady-like or roo?

I'm thinking cockerel but only bc I'm comparing him/her to other birds I have of varying breeds.

Okay, my BCM is 11 weeks now, still lady you guys think?

Sorry, was responding to KieksterChicken. I am learning that not knowing is 50% of this gig.

Yes, that's what I was told, that Flo is a mix of some kind, therefore an EE And I get that she's a he; posted him on Craigslist hours ago.

Flockmomma, so nice of you to look that up! Originally we had thought we bought a Swedish Flower Hen, available that day. But then a few weeks later it became clear he was not a SFH and those on the SFH thread said more like an EE. I went to Pollinate and the breeder and they thought that Flo...

Definitely red on the shoulders. So roo then. *tears* I was told weeks ago that Flo was not an Ameraucana bc of the yellow not green legs so people were thinking EE. At any rate, to Craigslist I go... And @flockmama, we got her(him!) and the rest from a new shop here in Oakland, California...

Flo is 2 and a half months old and has always been the biggest chick in our mixed flock (eight total, each a diff breed: coronation sussex, black copper maran, barnevelder, norweigan jaerhon, ameraucana, marraduna basque, silver penciled rock) but has always seemed hen-like to us novices (low to...

Looking for a new home for this 6-week-old rooster. I put an ad on craigslist in Oakland, Ca (San Francisco Bay Area) but no takers yet. I can take and send more pictures if wanted. Asking $15, which is what we paid; bought him from a shop here in Oakland that hatched him.

For comparison here's my 6-week Barnevelder pullet (or people have told me pullet)

Speaking of Silver Penciled Rocks, any sense from you experts out there whether this 6 week old is a lady or a gent?

Six week old BCM. He/she doesn't have much comb to speak of but a bit of a wattle is coming in and he/she sure does walk upright. Hen/roo thoughts?

Gargh. Lighter legs than the Ameraucana at the left and they look yellow to me, yes. So Easter Egger then. Wow, this is fun!

Tracked down the breeder, she's a blue Ameraucana and was mislabeled at the shop. Thanks, and looking forward to a SFH in my future!
