Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*
Craigslist helped me out this time. You can find beginner farmers or people looking to increase their flock number. I've posted fliers at the local feed feed stores before.

Update: 4 Weeks Old Definite red on wings and white on chest is very splotchy. Not the best of combinations. So this little one is off to a good home today. Thanks to everyone who replied!- FaustByFault

Barred Rock Rooster or Hen?
Update: 4 Weeks Old Feet are even bigger and comb is more pink. (And do I see wattles? At 4 Weeks?) Coloration remains more pullet due to lack of defined bars. But I'm still leaning towards cockerel.- FaustByFault

Barred Rock Rooster?
Hello ^_^ I have a 5 1/2 Week Old Barred Rock that I'm thinking (but desperately hoping is not) a cockerel. My city doesn't allow for such and I have grown quite attached to this little one.
