Male or female?

[Animalsanctuary10]

Would y’all be able to tell me if this young americauna is a male or female? We were told he was a male and we have been thinking it but now we’re not so sure (he is approximately 9 weeks old)

looks male to me. Large pea comb with a lot of color for age, although not any wattle growth. Cant see any rounded tail feathers.

Post pic with the chick standing, from the side. Can see stance and feathering better.

You were told correctly. He's a cockerel.

Awesome! Thank you!

Looks like a little cockerel. Definitely going to be a beautiful boy- I love blue EEs.

I'd definitely say cockerel

Wait so is he an Easter Egger or an Ameraucana?

He's an Easter Egger. Hatcheries and feed stores like to sell them as Americanas. Americana and Ameraucana are two different breeds.
