So I have posted this one before but we just keep praying it will still turn out NOT to be a rooster. Anyways almost 9 weeks.
I knew it wouldn't change but can blame a girl for wishing. These poor grandkids all picked the roosters as their favorites.
Sorry, cockerel. I've raised a few of EE, they have pea combs & I've noticed (not a science) 3 rows = cockerel along with the red while single row = pullet Cockerels are ALWAYS the favorite, I've been disappointed way to many times
I have two olive Eggers. One w a single comb. Maybe I will get one hen. It's been such a bummer w so many roosters. Having trouble rehoming them. What do you do with your Easter egger roosters?
Between 12 and 16 weeks. It depends on how quickly they grow and how rowdy they are. I do selectively breed for large birds that mature and develop quickly, though. Most dress out to about 3 to 4 pounds, regardless of when we process.
