Good day
I hope all is well
We are fairly new to chickens and would like to hear what you all think of our EE. Hoping she is a hen but she has pointy saddle feathers. The rest of her features we hope are female.

Thanking you in advance

"She" is currently 20 weeks old and isn't showing any behavioral characteristics of a male (no crowing, no mounting, no dancing) could it still be male? 🥲
It is male. @Rose the Legbar is correct. He has pointed saddle feathers and a big comb. There is no chance that it is female. Sorry.
