Would like some input on sexing this Black Ameraucana I hatched. Felt like it was a pullet but i'm hearing some crowing like noises coming from outside and not from my grown orpington rooster so I'm unsure now. It's always been very friendly towards me obviously. In addition he/she was very aggressive to some easter eggers i added this weekend but specifically towards the one closest in size. Its not aggressive at all towards the mixed orpington cockerel that it's been in the cage with for the last week or so(I'm almost positive that ones a cockerel) and it wasn't aggressive towards it from the beginning. Would love to hear what y'all think. Thanks!

The Ameraucana is around 10-11 weeks old. I've been pretty positive of the other for a while. My main flock is orpingtons and I think I've figured them out fairly well..
Looks like a pullet! I would expect a much more pronounced comb and wattles at that age.

Thank you so much! Just need to stop her from being so mean! My daughter really wants to keep Moonlight the chicken (Meanlight when she’s being mean).
