I'd guess cockerel then... my pullets didn't get that pink til close to lay... but could be wrong, most of mine have the dark combs...

Yes. If it has big feet and thick legs it is for certain.

Thanks! Everytime I hatch araucanas it seems like the boys are 90 percent of what hatches. I'm hoping this next one is a girl but I'm not sure..her comb is getting a bit of pink bur it is very flat especially compared to the other one..what do you think?

I going to be getting me a Araucana rooster. A Silver Duckwing.
He's going to go into a run with three pretty Naked Neck hens that have just started laying this past Sunday. Going to try making rumplessness NN's.

He doesn't have the ear tufts but not that important to me.

The hens are Blue Copper, Brown Red, and White. Wonder what colors ill get from a SDW rooster with them.

That's awesome, draye!! Try running the colors through the chicken calculator, it'll give you an idea...
