I bought her from tractor supply as a premium puller and recently she has been showing rooster traits like jumping on top of the others including our two guinea fowl I don’t know if she is trying to move up the pecking order or what but here is some pictures if she is a rooster she hasn’t crowed yet

Yep that's an Easter egger cockerel, not all cockerels are vocal.
The red wings is a dead giveaway.
I bought a amercuna pullet and I mean like it has never made a crow at all it sounds like the rest of my pullets the only behavior I see is it jumping only on my guinea fowl and it sometimes tries to peck the others I am not saying your wrong but it is confusing because I bought a pullet and she was marked as a pullet at tractor supply

Lots of people (and more so this year) have bought "pullets" from Tractor Supply that turn out to be cockerels.
 
What about this BOY? He was sold to me as an Americana female. Does he look like an Americana? I didnt find out until I heard a cock a doodle do at 9 weeks! What breed? I see no scarf?!
