Lavender Ameraucana ?

[Blue Eager]

Ok guys let’s try this again. Forget about the previous photos. I hope I’m wrong but I think I see 4 cockerels (1,2,3, & 4) & 3 pullets. What do you think?

As a side note; this might sound strange but to me there is something about a pullet besides her comb that gives her away. I think they have feminine facial features...or is it just me? Same thing for the cockerels (masculine).

I have a total of 7 Lavender Ameraucana's. Born Jan 12. Almost 3 month's old. I think they are all female for the exception of one. It is the one in the first pic & all subsequent pix w/ the arrow. I am hoping someone can verify.

In addition, the person I purchased these from said the odd one out is an Arucana. Obviously it isn't. I was hoping someone can ID it as well.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry I don’t know the answer, but they are beautiful!!!

I don't see any pointed saddle feathers yet, so I can't be certain any are cockerels. 1 and 2 definitely have very red combs at that age, though.

drumstick diva, can I ask why you selected 5 & 6 as the cockerels? & which series of photos are you referring to?

I see pointy neck feathers on 1 & 3 does that count?

It depends, sometimes new feathers coming in are mistaken for pointed feathers, but if the feathers are really pointed then they may be the start of rooster hackle feathers.
