20 or 22 week easter egger gender

And the rear view 😅
No eggs and no crowing.
Hangs out with the pullets. Aka avoiding the cockerels (maybe 6 ish in the pen) butcher date is Saturday.
In the rear view photo, I think I see pointy male saddle feathers (=male) for the lower bird.

But for any case where you are really not sure, you can butcher the known cockerels, and give the questionable birds some more time. Removing the dominant males will often let any other males become more obvious (redder comb, start crowing, start trying to mate with females, etc.)
 
This is a very clear cockerel.

This happened when we got rid of our nice big cockerel. Suddenly our plain black "pullet" grew up. Now the plain black "pullet" has red feathers in the wings and agression. He is also on the list
