Is this a pulley or roo?

[TheBeardie]

Thare is a few ways to tell. Hackle feathers, comb and saddle feathers. I mainly use the saddle feathers. In most breeds males have pointy saddle feathers and females are round. I have some pictures for future references. They're not the best pictures but I'll redo it with better pictures tomorrow.

Ha, funny think is I can’t be sure. Some days I’m like “ hackle feathers look pointed” and the next I’m like “no, the pattern on her just makes them look pointy” because there are black markings on her hackle feathers that make a point. I was 100% sure all feathers on the back end were rounded, but as of a few days ago her baby tailfeathers started looking like they may be saddlefeathers and she’s getting new, larger but so far rounded end tailfeathers. I’m one of those types that reads EVERYTHING on a new subject and I think I’ve only served to keep second guessing myself!

Gorgeous "pulley." She sports typical female specific coloration for an Easter Egger.

Your bird looks almost just like my two EE girls. The only thing throwing me off the the bright yellow legs. Usually Ameraucanas or EEs have gray or green legs.

Girl with big yellow legs. Her parentage can totally explain those legs.

I'd also say pullet, but wow she does have big legs!! Don't tell her though, I don't want her to have a problem with her body image!

Was going to say the same thing, but I didn't want to hurt her feelings by pointing out her cankles!
