4 week old Ameraucana - too early but no harm In guessing

[abenardini]

Hatched last month. Ameraucanas have always been harder to sex young but I suspect I have a few Roos at least out of the batch of 8.

Watching for hackles and saddles but again way too early so going off comb color.

#1 is an example of the smaller and lighter colored combs I’m seeing out of the majority. The remaining 2 appear early identifiers of Roo. Will post some body shots in a min for fun.

Daughter named the black one Tux…though it’ll be fully black where an adult but apt for now. It’s one of our special favorites even though it loves to peck skin. It’s been getting a few finger pecks every 10 minutes on the head and seems to be learning to be more gentle. Loves to be held. The white one is super sweet and cuddles on your body wherever you let it sit. Tries to sit on your shoulders.

This one for sure is a roo for reference. Very peculiar comb as well.
