Hello. I got this one as a chick commercially (we have named it Neckpecker) and they assured me it was a hen but from what I understand they are only like 95% accurate with that and easter eggers are the hardest to tell. A lot of the feathers are very round but there is an ever so slight curve to the tail. And while Neckpecker gets along fine with the other hens, she seems a lot more alert when it comes to hawks. Plus she's noticeably bigger than the other hens of the same age (a Barred Rock and a Silver Laced Wyndotte), but I've heard that's common in easter eggers. Then yesterday she flew up to snatch some dark clothing off the clothesline, which I've never seen a chicken do before. Seemed kind of aggressive if she thought it was a bird of prey but she's also ravenously hungry so if she just thought it was food, it probably means nothing.
So, what do you think? Hen or rooster?
