8 Week Old Easter Eggers Roos or Pullets

[countryacreshomestead]

Hi everyone!

First time chicken owner and poster We brought our chicks home on April 19th. We got them from the local feed store, so they were straight run. We got 4 Australorps and 4 Easter Eggers. We are pretty sure all the Australorps are Pullets, but 2 of the Easter Eggers have me guessing. I've scrolled through all the pics and I'm still not sure.

I'd love to hear your opinions!

Thanks!

2nd one pullet is my guess.no random splashes of color to identify male just golden laced kinda.

The deep red patches on the shoulders and wings indicate cockerel here is an example on my Easter Egger cockerel

Thanks everyone! I'm not disappointed. I thought he was, but I needed an expert opinion
