Ameraucana rooster or hen?

[pwhitaker413]

I have 8 - 6 week old ameraucana chicks and trying to figure out if one is a rooster. Tail feathers look different than others.... behavior not much different, doesn’t seem to be dominant one yet.

At this point in development, the feathers don't count for much. They won't grow in their male or female saddle feathers until their about 1 weeks.
That said, this is an easter egger, not an ameraucana. Nothing is screaming cockerel at this point, but those white wing bars are suspicious. I'd wait a couple more weeks and check back in with this one.

black is a female and white is male

So far they look like pullets. Still quite early for EE's though.

Thank you for your help!

I found out my Ameraucana was a roo when his tail feathers looked sad ( ) and he kept giving me the evil eye.
