Easter Egger (edited from Wyandotte) pullet or roo?

[tessj]

New here I have 6 hens - although I'm thinking Owlie is a roo. Super dominant, just tried to crow, and bigger than the rest of the flock. Totally neurotic too, we thought "she" was just mean but now it makes sense.

If "she" just crowed then "she" is defiantly a boy!

The bird in the foreground is a definite rooster. And he's not a Wyandotte, he's an Easter Egger

Now that I compare his chick photos to the easter egger photos online I can see it - they all look like owls!

Even from day one he was trouble We got them from the feed store and his ticket said Wyandotte but you are right!
Now do I keep him or rehome? We have 7 (you have to have more than 2 to have a Rooster) acres and now I know he's a rooster and acts that way to keep the girls in line, maybe I should keep him.

If you're allowed to, I would definitely keep him! He's a gorgeous roo. I wish I could keep a roo. I had one that would take very good care of the girls, especially the little special needs one. As long as he doesn't get too aggressive, I think he would be perfect for your flock

I'm attached too - to every one of them. And if can keep them safe, even better. Thank you for the encouragement. We have always thought Owlie was the prettiest!
