I think the Amerucauna looks like a pullet, Maran could be as well. What's the temperament like?

Here's a pic of my Maran for reference, this was taken at age 6 weeks. Little Chipotle is now 8 weeks and he's a spicy boi who acted like a cockerel from the start! His comb looks way more pronounced now, definitely different from your chickie.

She is very docile, she use to just sit on My lap and chill, but now a bit more skittish.her and the ameraucana are bonded.but I have seen them bump chest once or twice. The ameraucana was actually one that I was was worried about at 4 week it was nipping at me.
Thanks for the photo for reference.
 
I am unfamiliar with Marans, but the Ameraucana looks identical to my now 5 month old when she was that age. Both of my cockerels had a much more pronounced comb by 8 weeks. I sat 99.9% sure she is a pullet.
