Can you verify skin color (on back of legs/bottom of feet) as it looks yellow to me but it might just be lighting in the photo or on my screen.

I agree with others it't a pullet.. but when zoomed in, I also see the part that's got ya questioning.. those are ratty feathers not pointy (no rudeness).. caused by excess preening, flock antics, possibly external parasite, etc.

A couple good reference pics from google..

This is helpful! The other two girls look very much like the chicken on the bottom left. This one is the only one who’s saddles feathers have grown longer.

Edit: I’ll triple check for parasites. I know that her tail feathers were looking more sparse than the others a few weeks ago, and it concerned me so they all got thorough examinations, but you never know if you might have missed something! I’m inexperienced, so another look won’t hurt.
