Ameraucana mystery (sex)

[Table4Six]

Can you post a side-by-side?

I'm leaning more toward cockerel. My Ams have been very slow to mature while my hatched EEs (same sire) mature very quickly so I don't think the two should be compared for rate a maturity. Seventeen weeks is also very early for an Am pullet to start laying. They normally start closer to 6 months.

Well...chicken fans...
Pullets lead Cockerels 10-4
(if I didn't miss anything).

@tanyabee how sure are you that your other is a pullet? Can you post a side-by-side? Looking at what little can be seen of the white one, I see no real difference in feathers. And aggression is not a consideration when determining sex, IMO. I've got pullets right now that'll lay into a cockerel, even flare out their neck feathers.

The white girl is an EE and for sure a pullet.

Do you have any update pictures @tanyabee? Even just a few days could make a difference.

Looks like a pretty pullet to me. I vote keep her.

Ok!! It's raining like crazy here right now, so I will get one tomorrow morning.

I see some male hackle feathers ...saddles aren't clear.
