A pullet EE

It is an EE pullet

interesting that I'm getting the nods for pullet with these latest pics.... If it is a pullet (and We'd like it to be...) it's the biggest 9 weeks old girl I've ever had. My gut says it's a cockerel... I hope I'm wrong. As I said, We've had many of them in the past, just never had a girl this color and this big. Txs for all the replies so far, keep 'em coming.

elbertchcick or lizanne...could you post a pick of your hens for comparision? I'd really like to see what the grown up version of this brute will look like. TXS.

I have had a pullet with that coloring and she was pretty decent sized.

Just an update...this did in fact turn out to be a Cockerel/Rooster. Fortunately, we found someone to take it.

Do you have any pictures of it a little bit older than the pictures you posted? You rarely see an EE cockerel with that coloring and I'd love to see what he looked like as he got older.
