Hen or rooster Ameracauna?

[Jgrice]

This is my first time owning this breed, and I can’t tell if this pullet is a male or female. I know the tail feathers seem long, but I’ve also seen lots of other ameracauna hens with more pronounced feathers. The guy I bought it from says hen.

She's female.

That is an EE, and she is a pullet.

That’s what’s called an Easter Egger, which are mixed breeds who lay blue/green.
Her pattern is FEMALE ONLY.
Hens have patterns like these:
Even, not super bright, once again, EVEN, and a lot of brown ones.

And some of the boys. Note the streaky splotches, the bright colors, and the SADDLES. The black and white pattern is an exception to the bright colors, but the stark contrast instead of a gentle ombré is a clear giveaway.

The b&w pattern. A pair of B&W males, then females.

This is a great post! Love all the photos and the clear definition between male and female patterning.
