I can sex your pullets and cockerels!

[junebuggena]

Can you sex my Ameraucana? It's about 8-9 weeks old. We got 4 day old chicks from the local farm store and 1 already was a cockeral and this one (same color) is exhibiting crowing just like the other cockeralView attachment 1094948 View attachment 1094949 View attachment 1094950 . All the other Ameraucana we have are black / brown and are pullets. I appreciate the help.

That's an Easter Egger. And definitely a cockerel.

Both of these are pullets I think but they both have spurs am I wrong

Those are both pullets, but I don't see any spurs. I see extra toes on the first one though.

Bird in question is "Columbian", not a recognized variety. Splash are pale grey with flecks of darker blue.

I appreciate the quick response. Even though I've had Ameraucana for a few years, I'm not that well versed in them. What are the signs to look out for to show it's a cockeral?

You don't have Ameraucana. You've got Easter Eggers. Two different things. Your bird has a very well developed and red comb, male specific hackle feathers, and his male saddle feathers are just starting to come in.
