White Australorp gender?

[Loumia]

Hello there, this is my first post after being a reader for a few months! My chickens are about 7 months old now, and my white Australorp is yet to lay an egg. I've noticed that she has small nubs on the back of her legs, and I just wanted to check that she is definitely a girl! I hope the pictures are clear. Thanks in advance!

She's definitely a pullet! All chickens have spur nubs but roosters grow theirs in more than hens.

Oh wonderful, thanks so much! I was worried when I saw that this morning, the black Australorp doesn't have them and she lays an egg a day. What a relief, I'm not permitted to keep roosters and I love all my girls! Thanks again
