17 week old Easter Egger rooster?

[charitydevivo]

Hey y’all,

I know I’ve asked about this chicken twice already and both times y’all said pullet but this one really confuses me! I’m like 99.9% the other three are pullets now but this one is still aggressive and “her” comb got really big and red in the last two weeks. They’re 17 weeks old now. I have a backup plan for if she does end up being a he but I live in an HOA and I’m really worried that I’ll have to get rid of all of my chickens if one starts crowing before I can give him away… please help!

Pullet I think.

Still a pullet - maturing more rapidly than the others.

I'll go take a pic of my latest addition of 5 Pullets. They all look different/matured at different rates, 18weeks now and one doing the "squat," the one with the least amount of red.... Another one, huge red comb but I know she's a she. Just hang in there, you're going to know soon enough. I predict that "guy" will be laying beautiful blue and green eggs in just a few weeks

It is for sure a pullet. At 17 weeks it would have male specific feathering if it was a boy. The rusty salmon breast feathers are female specific.

Update: She just laid her first egg!
