Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

Can you possibly describe what that sounds like...I think mine is a girl, but I want to make sure. So I haven't heard a sound like that (don't think anyways) but want to know what to listen for. Every once in awhile I hear a partial cluck nose come from her, but mostly she still "peeps"...lol

Like this:

It is me again. Believe it or not one of the 4 week old baby is trying to crow. Not sure which one.

The one closest to the camera is your likely cockerel. Rooster red starting to come in on the shoulders.

What do you guys think, boy? It's seven weeks.

@dan26552 That's​ a tricky one. Nothing particularly male about it. Yet.

 

[dan26552]

Yeah, it's been throwing me curve balls for awhile. Most of the other males either have big red combs or red shoulders. I'm hoping for a pullet Then I could pair it with the partially laced silver male.

Thank you. That was the cutest thing I've ever heard! Lol...but that is Definitely not what my chicken is doing.

as a reminder this is what she started out as

She is starting her 10th week....still not one pointy feather, her comb is still single row of peas and pale.

@ Jacuieh

The posture is really clear too. They do this huge neck stretch with some raised feathers. The first time my little roosters did it I laughed in his face. It's so prepubescent. Sounds like they need lots of practice and their voice is still breaking. Just like that video. They do get better at it. : ) Once they learn they are really proud of it too. They'll practice a lot.
