Easter Egger gender inquiry

[Jodster70]

Here are some pics of my Little EE, Hermione. She (or he) is 11 weeks old. Three rows of “peas” on the head which sometimes indicate rooster. Looking for experienced replies as to what gender it may be.

Girl. She has a female-specific pattern.

If she was a he, that comb should be red by now. This is my EE roo at 8 weeks

Great - so it doesn’t matter about the three rows of “peas”? She is such a sweetie.

Yes. With EEs, since they are mixes, it doesn’t always work. My JB, a turquoise egg layer, has three rows.

She is indeed a pullet.

I wouldn’t be so sure yet. Look at the red on his/her shoulder. It also seems pretty unlikely that a pullet would have the three rows on a pea comb. The shape of the feathers do look like pullet though.

Feathering is sex specific as Odd said.
Pullets do get three rows of pea comb all the time. People say three rows mean male - not always.
I have zero doubt she is a young lady. But updates when she begins laying don't harm anything.

I think you are referring to a different bird posted for comparison?
