Is my 7 week old Americana a pullet or cockerel?

Can you post a pic of the birds comb straight on and in good lighting please?

I am leaning toward a rock as penciled wyandottes are far less common.

Yeah that’s true!! Definitely pretty rare but then again pencilled Rocks are pretty rare too but definitely more likely than a Wyandotte I would think.

I have noticed that Americanas can have completely different coloring from each other. Picture one is a relative's Americana and picture two is mine. They were from the same hatchery.

She is a mystery! That comb is not a rocks comb.

Maybe she is a dark brahma that happens to have clean legs.

Hatchery birds can be a mixed bag of not conforming. I have a hatchery faverolle that doesn't have the extra toe and a "giant red cochin" that is definitely NOT giant and not bantam myself.

Well she wouldn’t be an ameraucana, she’d be an EE.

Here’s an article to clear confusion

Thank you all so much for helping!

I don't know! Just noting that they can have different feather colors and patterns even in the same breed. Unfortunately, I am not an expert on breed identifying. This thread might help:

I am going to say that she is a silver penciled rock with a weird comb, all of the pictures on google look like her.
