Ameraucana - rooster or pullet

[brezbyme]

I bought 5 Ameraucana to add to my new flock but did not get any guarantee of sex. With the pictures I've posted, can anyone assist? They will be 6 weeks hatched tomorrow. I wasn't sure what pictures would help identify the most so I can do more, if needed.

At this point in the game, all appear to be pullets. They are Easter Eggers rather than Ameraucanas.

Yes EE. If their combs are still yellow at this age they are most likely pullets, if they're pink or turning red they are cockerels. From my experience...

Thank you! Darn, I had hoped that they were the real deal. Lumber 2 has let me down. I love them anyway!

You can get the real deal from Meyer or Cackle if you're willing to order from a hatchery.

what do you think about these pics? I was trying to get some light on them. They are still leary of coming out of the coop.

What's your opinion of these last two pictures? I am trying to get outside shots of them so that the color is truer.

They do look like males.
