well it concerned me because she does have saddle feathers. but the comb isn't nearly as red as my EE rooster's is.

Definately pullet. I will eat my barn boots if it is a cockerel.

An EE pullet to me too.

If this photo is of an Americana that is only 14 weeks old then I wouldn't bet the barn boots just yet. I have had them look like a hen up to 20 weeks and turn out to be a rooster. My bet is this is a rooster because of the long neck and the Tail feathers. Keep us informed on this. I may be wrong and I hope I am for your daughters sake.

Looks like a spoiled little hen to me!

I am no expert but even at 9 weeks old my ameraucanas are very easy to tell the pullets from the cockerels. I would really hate to have to eat my barn boots. So here's a little

for both myself and chickenwendy's daughter.

I have had them that way too. Sometimes they are easy but I have also had them fool me many times. I sure hope you are right. I wouldn't hold you to eating the barn boots. He He. I thought that was funny.
