back right looks like a female so far and so does the one to the left of her. The one closest to the camera looks like a male. I could be wrong though. Oh I didn't see your three new pics. Its only the darker brown one that might be a cockerel cuz of that comb, but check the neck feathers. Pointy is male. Rounded is female. Usually... But, they could all be females, you never know

Make sure you full size the image. It has a single comb that is super small. definitely a girl.

Usually around 12 weeks.
Also, needs to breed true 50% of the time.

I have a bunch of white EEs. Some have slate legs. All have nice full beards.

Thank you WishingWings and Aoxa. I suppose I will never know as I will not have a white ameraucana to breed any time soon. They do have all other characteristics, except for eggs since they haven't laid yet.

You are safe calling her an Ameraucana without being corrected

I was worried about this one because of all the reading I have been doing about the coloring and other hints at gender. I could be wrong but it looks like it is getting some red showing on its shoulders. Could this be a roo? They are around 11 wks old and not real big combs.

7 weeks? That is a rooster!

SERIOUSLY?? Did you my previous post with the white one that has the extremely vertical tail and extremely red comb. It crows.
I was hoping this one was a pullet because it has no orange or red and it has that kind of ombré color pattern. Any other opinions?
Thanks!
