Ok here she/he is.  The little one is 11 weeks old.   I am thinking girl, but the only thing that worries me is the red in the wing? What do you guys think?

Wow, LOVE the coloring. That sweet face says pullet but the darker coloring in the wings says cockerel, hmmm. What do the legs look like? Thick or thin?

wee.gif  Yippie!  I sure hope you guys are right.  "She" sure acts like a pullet and has the thinner legs.  A definate sweetie pie. 

 

Thank you for the compliment on her coloring.  I love it too.  I don't usually keep Easter Eggers (just because I don't have enough pen space LOL) but a few this year stole my heart with their sweet little dispositions so I'm holding onto them!   love.gif
