So I bought a real ameraucana (she's either a wheaton, or a blue wheaton), and now I'm starting to question whether she might actually be a boy. I know that wheatons are supposed to be sexed by color, and she's definitely got the colors of a female, but her feathers are quite pointed around her neck and back. Any suggestions?
Also, when I introduced her to my coop, she got attacked by the other birds. She's pretty much healed, but she still kind of looks like Einstein because she's still missing a patch of feathers on her head...
I'll try to get some better pictures of her later, ideally ones that show her back, but anyone have any thoughts on her gender/color based on these pictures?
