Can anyone sex these EEers yet? (Pic intensive) UPDATED WITH NEW PIC

Hehe I may invoke your RIR sexing services in a while. I am getting ready to try to incubate some eggs from my RIR's in my DIY incubator that I am coining the "FRANKENBATOR" because I made it out of all kinds of spare parts I had lying around.

I will post some more pics of the EEers in a few weeks.

I added a few more photos of them now that they are 3 weeks older. I can take closer photos of individual birds if you need to see them better.

Thanks a lot!

Hey, Keith! The EEs are cute - I'm pretty good at sexing the EEs, but I'd need to see individual pics - one from the side, one a close-up of the face to see the comb. Typically, though, if you are seeing combs that are pinking up already a this point, they are cockerels.

How are the Blue Jerseys doing?

The Jersey's are doing great. They are still a little shy around people but they are getting less afraid because we make it a point to hold them every day. They are actually in the first photo as well

They have gotten along great with the EEers - I am glad they went together so well without a lot of pecking order stuff.

I will try to get some better photos of the individual birds tonight. It looks like I have 5 cockerels and 2 pullets for the EEers though. I will keep them all until spring and then I can find the best EE roo and rehome the other guys. I have a feeling that EE roos are a little easier to rehome than most roos.

I hope you have better luck than I did. I had to take my purebred ameraucana to an auction cause I couldn't find a home

Well if I can't find a home for em I guess the only option will be to purchase enough pullets to keep 5 roos happy

Sorry you had to take your ameraucana to the auction
