Roo?

[Bananer86]

I know they’re still a little too young to be 100% certain (3.5 weeks) but I’m thinking this one may be a roo. S/he has a larger & rosier comb than the other 3 & I believe I see wattles trying to come in.

I bought them as Ameraucana pullets which clearly the breed was wrong so now I’m questioning gender for this one too. Any advice, help, references would be much appreciated.

TIA!

It's a pullet.

Are the pictures of one chick or several? Too young to be sure, but with the size of the comb & wattles coming in, thinking cockerel. The comb is a single, Ameraucana's have a pea comb.

It’s the same chick just different angles. I realized a couple weeks ago they weren’t Ameraucana, at the time I let the excitement take over & didn’t really inspect them. Since this one is the smallest but has the biggest comb & it’s rosier than the others I have my suspicions that my “pullet” may have been mislabeled as well

Love the lavender colored breeds ... Lavender Orpingtons my favorite Thought that's what they were but their shape and feathering don't fit. If they had feathered I'd guess Maran but no feathers on the feet/legs ... pretty anyway

Thank you their coloring was originally what made me believe the Ameraucana sign now I’m trying to figure out what they are possibly Sapphire Gems from what another member said. This was the day we got them

I agree, too young.
