This is not always true. Since EE are a mix, all they need is a blue egg gene, and it doesn't matter where it came from. So they CAN have muffs, beard and pea come, but don't have to. If they're genetics includes a crested cream legbar, they can have crests and single combs... I knew...

Agreed! That's a cockerel!

This looks like a pullet to me. Male vs Female saddle feathers will start coming in soon... next couple of weeks.

Its too early for male or female specific saddle feathers. Those don't come in until their 12-13 weeks. The come is suspect, but I don't see any rust or red on the wings, tbh. I'd give it another week or two and check back.

Yep, I think one of each.

I think you have one of each.

Who? Chick down colors nor patterns reveal the sex of the chick.

the pattern across her back and wings is a female pattern only. Males cannot sport that pattern. She is a lovely pullet.

Snowy is a cockerel. Clear saddle feathers and clear sickle feathers.

The size of that comb, the coloring, this looks like a cockerel to me. You should be getting in the saddle feather's soon on this one, that will tell you for sure.

You probably did, since there's black there. But that doesn't mean your bird is a cockerel. All birds of any gender that have black feathering will sheen black or even purple in the sun. My Black Jersey Giant hen sheens both purple and green.

Looks like a pullet to me... What makes you think cockerel?

Its a little young to tell. Wait until its at least 8 weeks, and maybe as old as 10.

Yep, that's totally a cockerel. he's probably not crowing because he's afraid of being thrashed by his father or his brother for trying.

Iridescence in black feathers means very little. All birds of all genders that have black feathers have iridescence. My black jersey giant hen is black that iridesses green and purple. However, I think I see male saddle feathers starting to grow in, which tells me this is a cockerel.

Way too soon to tell

Pullet
