Americauna Rooster???

[jlang0977]

Ok so we have recently been up early enough where we hear crowing coming from our coop. At first we thought maybe it was our Ameraucana we called Lucy because we have noticed all along that Lucy seems to be bossy and herds the other chickens and is a little bigger that other Ameraucana she came with that is supposed to be the same age. Lucy's cob is a much brighter color than the other and we noticed tints of green in the tail feathers (if that matters) I took some photo's in hopes maybe someone can help me.. Keep in mind that Lucy is 2 months.

Lucy is Luke and an EE.

See I was thinking so which now I don't know what to do with him.. I also fully believe that one of my Rhode Island Red's we got from the same place is a rooster as well.. I noticed it's getting red thing under under it's chin and it has splashes of shiny green on it's body as well as the tail, but the other does not..

Yep, Lucy is a cockerel. Feel free to post a pic of your other bird to confirm gender.

The first 2 pics are of the Rhode Island Red we suspect is a rooster and the bottom pic is of the other one we have.. You can see a complete difference..

The first Rhode Island Red and Easter Egger are roosters.
