Please help! What breed is this?

[Traffie Chickens]

Hi I think I posted about this already but people didn’t really know, so I am trying again. But does anyone know what breed and gender this chick is? We thought it was a jersey giant but we weren’t sure. He or she came out of a brown egg, if that helps! Thanks!

It is 4 1/2 weeks old and it is wayy bigger than our other EE chicks that are the same age. It’s comb doesn’t have any pigment yet.

It looks way younger than 41/2 weeks in the photos. Are these really current pics?

He looks like an Easter Egger, and a cockerel as well.

I think too early to tell gender for sure, but the chick has a pea comb.

But don’t Easter Eggers come out of blue or green eggs?

EE's are supposed to lay blue or green eggs, but it's quite common that they lay brown as well. I believe you got the eggs from your neighbor, right? Do you know if they have any Easter Eggers that lay brown eggs, or an EE roo?

Ya we did get them from our neighbors, and I don’t know if they have any brown laying EEs, but I do know that they have an EE roo.

There you go then. His dad is an EE, which is where he gets his pea comb, and his mom is either an EE who lays brown eggs or maybe something like a Black Australorp or Black Jersey Giant, which is where his black coloring comes from.
