Dunlap Hatchery EEs- tell me it’s not red leakage

Not 8 weeks yet, but looking and acting more dude-ish every day.. also pretty “rusty”. Does my little Kronk look like a cockerel to you?

The comb and wattles doesn't look very cockish, and the overall pattern is pretty uniform. Right now I'm going to say pullet, but post some more pictures at 10-12 weeks. If it's a cockerel there should be more comb development by then.

This is my first batch of chicks with pea combs so I wasn’t sure how obvious he/she should be since my single comb cockerels have been very obvious, very young. but I will be surprised if this chick ends up a female.

It's just awfully pink for that age

I have had pullets with redder combs, I've had EE pullets with similar coloring, but the stance in the picture looks cockeral.

How long on an EE should I wait to be sure? 10-12 weeks? If it’s a little male I don’t have the space or ladies for him, but my dad does.. I would just hate the transition to be harder for him than it has to be by waiting too long to take him back.

X2, the coloring, the size of those legs and standing, oh Boy, maybe I'm wrong, but sure seems like all the characteristics of an up and coming Cockerel. Very interested to see how he/she turns out though.

When they charge $4 there is no doubt that they are EE. A true Ameraucana should be closer to $10.
At least they are honest and call them EEs in the description.

Don't start this up! EE's will all be $10 if someone catches wind!

Maybe I should keep him to hatch out some $10 babies next year
