Easter egger hen or rooster?

I guess I can wait it out but I think they won't trade them back if I wait too much longer. I wish I could have a rooster. Don't wanna push my luck with my neighbors and I think you need at least 1 acre of land for rooster and we have 0.64

If it's causing you to be worried then I would just go ahead and trade it in, especially since there are enough folks in here who think it shows signs of being a male. It's not worth the heartache and hassle if it does eventually turn out to be a boy. Just make sure the trade has an even color pattern and not a splotchy one. Something like the two girls you already have. Good luck!

I'd contact them and ask. 6 weeks is a very early cutoff. But, if that's their policy, I agree with Jed. I'd choose one with a very typical female pattern to be sure. And it's a pity because the unusual ones can be the most stunning.
