Wheaton Ameraucana Pullet? Or Cockerel?

[Kelly568]

Hey just wanting advice on the sex of this chicken. I was told it’s a pullet but I am not certain. The chicken is really skittish, hides her head like an ostrich when one of the older girls is near. No crowing. I wasn’t told how old.

It's a pullet.

I think it's a pullet. just for the fun of knowing, if she grows spurs, it's fine. many of my hens had spurs, and one even humped another hen.

Could I ask what a spur is?

yep! a spur is a big claw on a chicken (usually a rooster)'s leg. it is really sharp, will sometimes shave feathers off a poor hen's back when a rooster humps the hen, and will hurt you if you and your rooster are not on good terms. I have never experienced that one
