Sorry but that is definitely a cockerel.

See those darker yellow pointy feathers coming down his neck? Those are hackle feathers, only the men have them

It would seem that your "Wheaten Ameraucana" is actually an Easter Egger as Wheaten Ameraucanas are a completely different color as 'allmychickens" said above.

Was your chicken a hen or a roo???

They are all girls and all laying some nice eggs! Thanks everyone!

All pullets, it would be really obvious if they had saddle feathers. This is one of my Bantam Barnevelders cockerels, notice the very thin, pointy, shiny feathers right before his tail? Those are saddle feathers

That is one of the most insanely beautiful roosters I've ever seen!!!!!

I need help! Is this lavender ameraucana a boy? I have two but this one has me stumped. 11 weeks old. Look at that comb. I’ve never had this breed before. My other one still has a pale comb. I seldom ever see it stand up talk like a typical roo but some of these feathers and the comb have me thinking I have a boy on my hands.

Thank you, I was in denial I think

thank you, I will get full body shots of all of them today if I can.

I didn't know this- maybe I don't have a roo then
