Easter Egger Gender guesses

Agree with what others have already said, but also I'd add that it could just be the angle of the photos but you seem to be looking for male saddle feathers right back at the tail. They'll grow in further forward than that, especially at first.
Here's where to look, though ten weeks old could still be a bit too young.

Thanks, ya all the feathers look the same so I'll have to wait. Only one of the confirmed males has obviously pointed swaddle feathers coming in.

I think twelve weeks old is about when they usually start, though a few weeks either side of that wouldn't be unusual.

I was wondering about that, but wasn't sure if it applied to EEs since they are mutts. It acts more like a roo than the roos.

It's genetically impossible for a female chicken to have both gold and silver genes. This has nothing to do with the breed, it has to do with how the chromosomes are arranged.

He will be stunning although I know that's not a help for your situation.

I'm curious how you got 3:4 cockerels from a sexed pullet order. Was this one of the major hatcheries?
