Hi!
You all did such a fantastic job with my 6 week old Speckled Sussex last week, I'm back with an EE. Sold to me by a breeder sexed as a pullet. Comb has 3 rows, started pink-ing up at 5 weeks, which, besides regularly duking it out with my likely-cockerel SS and being a general bossy-pants, are my main concerns. I know it may be too early, but if I have two boys, I'd like to know ASAP as that would be HALF of my little flock of four (and they have to leave).

Please excuse the blu-kote coloring on the tips of tail and wing feathers, a chick that was kicked out of my flock for beating the snot out of everyone else got this one good about 4 weeks ago.

You have an Easter Egger pullet.

Yay! Thank you, thank you! We're all kind of attached to this one and my 8 year old son was like "Mom... it's getting pink... you need to ask the people on the internet what they think about this one so I know whether I can stay attached to this one or not". We're obviously still new to chickens, but this is the only one that has a name out of our 4.
