Easter Egger; HEN OR ROO?

[annabobbob717]

Hi everyone! So I have four new pullets I’ve been raising and they are officially 9 weeks old. They are wonderful but my only concern is my Easter egger. She has a slightly oranger and larger comb than her sisters although there’s have begun to change from yellow to Orange as well. It is not even a drastic difference, but she does have a single comb vs a pea comb which I thought was odd. My black cooper Maran of the same age puts her in her place and seems to have dominance over the flock but there are still several other signs. I will attach some pictures to what everyone thinks!

Looks like a cockerel.

Looks like a cockerel.

The only thing is “she” has dainty small legs and rounded tail feathers, and my obvious female is dominant over the suspected roo

Male, the splashes of red on shoulders and chest indicate male.

The rounded tails and saddle feathers I find that in EEs they stay that way even males until they get a bit older then they slowly start to point and curve

no totally a pullet, its a girl, egg layer if it was a rooster it should totally look different,
i'm seeing these comments a lot lately on different threads, but at 9 weeks it should be totally obvious if it was a roo, here is an example of a ee roo at 8 weeks and then at 13 weeks you can see the diff in the crest so yes, i believe you have a girl ee, they can be tricky bc i notice that chickens grow at different rates, and sometimes their comb get big and reddish and then their head catches up and the comb seems smaller again, compared to the head

That's a cockerel. The red on the wings combined with the color and size of the comb support this.
