Easter Egger hen or roo?

Well, I hope the other pullets I got really are females then. I’m pretty sure the gray one (Jewel) is but the little brown one (Brownie) is too young for me to tell. View attachment 3754600

As I said earlier, they’re supposed to be about 7-9 months now, but this little brown one (Brownie) has to be a bit younger than that.
Yes, the two are pullets. For your information, just for learning purposes, the things that make your cockerel obvious include:
  • Pointed hackles.
  • Pointed saddles.
  • Sickles.
  • Golden streaks in feathers that only males can have.
  • Wing bows that are a different color than the rest of the body, which is again a male-specific trait.
  • Thick leg size.
  • Larger body compared to the pullets.
I hope this explains!
