I bought EE pullets, but I'm 95% sure this one isn't. He is the same size as the others, but he often acts differently than the others. He's the Last to go to bed, he is more aggressive in personality, etc. Anyone want to confirm or deny his gender?








 
We bought 9 easter Eggers and one turned out to be a rooster so we just went through this... I think it's a she. It's hard to tell but to me the tail feathers have no curl to them so I would say hen

This morning I heard it CROW. Is crowing conclusive?

In this case, yes. Hens rarely crow and on those rare occasions when they do, it's almost always an older hen which has taken over the role of a rooster in a roosterless flock. In your EE's case though, it's male gender was obvious long before it crowed.
