Roos or Pullets?

[chickens really]

One thing for certain!!!
They are Chickens...50/50 they are either Roos or Hens?
I have 15 Pure Ameraucana chickens. Will not get into a colour sexing issue!

If your Ameraucana are not one of the recognized varieties, they are not Ameraucana, but Easter Eggers. To be an Ameraucana, a bird must meet the breed standard, and be one of the recognized varieties or breed true at least 50% of the time.
Wheaten Ameraucana can be sexed by coloring. That is a simple fact of genetics. Males are mostly black. Females are a creamy 'wheaten' color.

Lets just agree to disagree....
I have a Mostly black Wheaton hen. Lays eggs! Not a Rooster!
Pure Ameraucana!!! Bought her from a guy with show birds!

Then she isn't wheaten.

I also will not get into a debate on this issue. Not what this thread was started for!
I answered to the best of my knowledge.
Start a thread on the topic?
I will not post pictures of her or reply.

I wasn't trying to argue. I was explaining why the birds in question are male. If you have a problem with facts, that's on you.

They are great with each other and with the 3 Biefielder pullets 5 olive Egger pullets and 2 olive Egger cockerels they are with....ugh...
They looked so much like females until the last week and then I started to wonder....ugh....
Oh well....that means they will be good mates to my Marans....
