Splash Ameraucana Chick-Pullet or Cockerel?

Beings that the comb isn't bright orange yet and there aren't any wattles showing, I would say girl too! She sure is gorgeous Cyn!

Ameraucanas have small pea combs, and very little wattles. You can't go by that the way you can in other breeds.

It looks like a girl to me too. I usually get more males with these Black Ameraucanas than I do girls, I am hoping for a few females this year too.

Yes, Stacey, Sara is right, you really dont see the wattles on Ameraucanas. That's a breed you ought to try some day. I love my Charlotte and her daughter, Gypsy. They are complete lap chickens, both want to be picked up constantly. Just the sweetest girls.

I would say a female.

Looks like a girlie to me.

Awesome! Thanks all for your input, especially our resident Ameraucana cop, Jean, LOL, who should know what she's talking about!

Oh, by the way, her name is Snow, in memorium for another Ameraucana hen named Snow, who left this planet a bit too soon, may she RIP.
Cara, I hope you get more of the Black Am girls you are wanting this year. The blacks are so gorgeous.
