Hello!
I have read in several places that red feathers on the shoulders of an Easter Egger means that it will most likely be a boy, and I have noticed some reddish feathers growing on the shoulders of my 2.5 week old Easter Egger that is supposed to be a pullet. It is also noticeably bigger than the other chicks of different breeds. I'm really hoping it's not a boy because my city doesn't allow the keeping of roosters. I would be very sad to rehome it as it is a very sweet bird.
Anyways, can some chicken owners that are more experienced than myself tell me whether or not they think it is a boy or a girl? Even if you aren't certain, your input would be greatly appreciated. I attached some pictures of the bird for you to look at. Thanks!
