3 breeds, unsure! 6 weeks old

[Acre4Me]

We got 10 straight run breeds. Chicks are now 6 weeks old. These three we are unsure about.

They should be:
1. Redcap (should have a rose-type comb) - and we are pretty sure about that one being the Redcap.
2. Blue Ameraucana. We should have two of these, but only one has a pea comb. Can the other mystery chick be an Ameraucana with a straight comb? For whatever reason, I didn't take extra pics of that mystery chick. Thoughts on gender of chick #1?

well I'm not sure that people are answering because they do look a little tricky to me but in terms of the single comb yes it is possible for an Ameraucana to have that but not likely if it's purebred. since both parents should have the pea comb Gene it should not have a single comb

Chick one looks like it is possibly a Cockerel but it's not really definitive one way or the other if it is it's slow maturing. Check 3 on the other hand is definitely a Cockerel

no, its not possible for an ameraucana to have anything other than a pea comb. That's part of the standard of perfection. That, and pea comb is dominant gene, so a single comb wouldn't just show up.
what color are the foot bottoms. I suspect that the mystery chick is either an austrolorp or a black jersey giant. And a cockerel.

Hmmm...BJG maybe. I’ll see if feet are yellow. We have BJG from another source that are 16 months old and are good representatives of the breed. I’ll check this chick out to see how he compares.

Okay yeah so technically what I meant was it's possible for Easter Eggers that appear to be Ameraucana and have not been properly bred to throw a single comb. I sort of said that but meh lol
