6 week old EE chick, cockeral or pullet? (Pic heavy, refresh if large)

[Pet Duck Boy]

Here's Meko, one of my 6 wk old chicks.
This chick was the 2nd fastest to feather out, but I've had my suspicions. First of all the tail is larger, and more taller than any of the other chicks, including my other white EE. S/he isn't THAT aggressive, or bold....but it does like to rush the other chicks when they get too active. Just a kick here or there, and a peck to the head....but nothing serious. All the others do this, but I'd say Meko does it the most. S/he's peacomb is small....my other white EE has a large comb, but it's a very light yellow. Meko's comb is very small, like I said....but it is more colored. I wouldn't call it a deep pink or red....but it definitely isn't a light yellow.

All the chicks.

Pullet. Easter Eggers can be a little wacky in looks, but their color usually shows their gender, and your bird is a standard hen color. Males tend to be more blotchy in color, and the girls more camouflage, or evenly colored. Plus, her tail is straight. (though I have had some E.E pullets get some curved tail feathers)

OK, great to know...anyone else think this is a pullet?

I too think Pullet... The tail feathers are also very rounded and the sadle area has rounded feathers instead of pointy

I say pullet as well. The color gives it away. Very pretty!

She's very pretty! I hope some of my new EEs turn out as pretty!
