5 week old ameraucana

[Nellaca7]

Hello all!

This year, I decided to get some baby chicks and raise them as my last flock aged out!

With this mix, I got a mixed breed flock and can’t determine if my ameraucana is a roo or a pullet? Any thoughts?

Well, its not an ameraucana, or a traditional hatchery easter egger. In the first pic I'd almost say jersey giant, but I can't tell if I'm seeing yellow feet because of the light or not... What color are the feet and foot bottoms?

 

[Nellaca7]

The feet are black! The foot bottoms are both black and yellow. I’m just not sure if it is a rooster or a hen? What do you think?

 

[Frazzemrat1]

Not sure. Yellow foot bottoms means black jersey giant. In another couple of weeks, if a cockerel, he'll pop up that comb and it will brighten up in color.

Thank you very much! I already have a rooster so I am afraid to have another!

Ok! Any idea if it is a pullet or hen? Here are some more pics. The feet are a yellowish color.
