This is Rain a Jersey Giant/Araucana cross who is 4 months old. I thought she was a she but my neighbor says boy. I've never had Araucanas and don't know what the cockerels look like.

Wow, pretty handsome....So white it's hard to make out if any saddle/hackle feathering. At 4 months & comb that red, 2x cockerel. How do you keep it so WHITE :love If you can get a picture of its back, looking for saddle/hackle feathering but then being part Jersey Giant, it maybe a slow bloomer. Pretty bird.
 
WOW! She/he is neon white! That sure makes it hard to see the saddle feather.

Hold it in you lap, separate out some saddle feathers "don't pull them out" and lay them out over you hand "for contrast". Rounded = pullet, pointed = cockerel. Take a picture if you can, may need an extra pair of hands.
