Stay away from the straight run and get pullets. At least with pullets there is about a 90% chance they are female.

Thanks. I will post pics of the new chick's when we get them.

This is all 4

Gosh, in that picture of them together, all 4 look like cockerels to me. Maybe someone that's better at this game than I am will have a different opinion.

Never mind, I see other replies came in. I'm sorry about the tough luck. I hope your next chicks give you more girls!

EE can look like anything, as they are mixed breeds and not purebred. Some people refer to them as mutts and they will not breed true. Still a pretty neat bird, IMO.

Got this one and not sure on the sex. The tail looks like a hen but the head says roo.

That bird looks very male to me.

Congratulations ... It's a BOY!

Definitely male. See all those long thin saddle feathers hanging down in front of his tail? Pullets and hens don't have those. Same at the hackle (neck) but those are often harder to tell apart until later.
