We hatched out this RIR chick and I was reading about trying to sex them early. I know it's a long shot and usually wait until much older but wasn't sure if anyone had any opinions?! Hen or roo? Her mom is RIR and dad is Easter egger.

Yes dad is a easter eggerIs the chick a RIR mixed with something else? The chick has a lot of fuzz around the face area, possibly have a muff or beard.
I would say it's kinda too soon to tell the gender. Maybe wait a few weeks and please post again!
Then that's where he's getting his beard from! hahaYes dad is a easter egger
O yes lol! I honestly wouldn't mind if it was a Roo. He isn't the nicest roo and just all of a sudden started coming after me. He's got me a few times. So I wanted to experiment and hatch some eggs from him before we got rid of him. We didn't raise him as a chick so I'm hoping if we raise from chick, we can get a nice rooster!Then that's where he's getting his beard from! haha
