8 wk old EE Pic's theres a Bunch please help Sex. I read that Huge EE thread, still not sure.

Umm, the owner two those two chicks already said in the post they're cockerels, and, they're quite obviously cockerels too. The poster was using the photos for reference.

I say to the OP, looks like you have all pullets except the mostly reddish one is still on the fence, but likely a pullet. Pics of tail and wings don't help honestly, but pics of the back will greatly help. The thing to do is look for feathers on the back (hips, between wings) and on the arm part of the wings that may be pointed, glossy, or toothy in appearance and almost always darker in color than surrounding normal feathers.

I just have to say, Illia, you are my hero

This is my first year with EEs and I have read every forum on here I can find on the subject and you flat out amaze me. I REALLY appreciate all of your input on the genetics behind these beautiful birds. Thank you for teaching me so much about my new "kids". I look forward every day to learning more.
 
Ok I will try and get some pic's of that area, Since I was felling like i had all roo's the guys that I went in with on the birds gave me some of there's ( we had ordered 15 EE all together ) I only kept 3 of them, so Ill post pic's of those also and you can give me feed back on them also, If it turns out I have all Hens Ill give them those birds back, the one guy wants a roo to so Ill give him a Roo, I think the EE Roos are some nice looking Birds My Adult EE roo is very good looking. My one buddy who took a bunch of the EE's has mostly White in color ones, or white and black ones, and they all have much more puffy beards, its weird how as babys we had like four diffrent colors in the box and now they are all over the place in color.
 
Your black and white ones look like girls in those pics! :) We're probably just making you crazy! LOL. I only see one that looks like a boy now, the one with the very red back. The rest really look like girls. :) The new pics were great.
 
These all came from the same Hatching. Yes i am going nuts, I v been taking pictures of chickens for days now. Just wondering what makes you think # 6 is a boy? What is different between that one and the other white ones? I know the comb is slightly bigger?
