Easter Egger Sex?

[kenna3]

I got 3 straight run Easter Egger chicks in March. They are about 10 weeks old and am trying to figure out their sex. I’m new to this so I appreciate everyone’s help. All three act fairly more aggressive than my other chickens which are hens.

I have two that are similar in color which I separated with the silver/gray one. (First three pics are one chicken, next two are one chicken, and last three are another chicken)

Images 1-3 look female, 4-6 - with the mean grin- those look like a roo (because of the comb, and I see waddles). The last ones look like female. I could be wrong tho- I am a beginner.

But I have not seen easter eggers with that coloring before (neat)- looks like the color of my RIR's with more black- hehe.

Thank you! Yes ended up with really cool coloring. The red was a surprise and I really like it.

They all look like cockerels to me.

Yeah, I was doing some research. And found this tidbit:

Which I guess I see most often. So they may all very well be Roo's.

#1 - I think a boy but the jury is still out. The legs look fairly skinny but not real skinny. The comb isn't that large and is pink. I do not see any wattles. But the upright posture, body conformation, and curling tail feather make me think boy.

#2 - More sure it is a boy. Wattles and a red comb. Legs not ridiculously heavy but heavy enough. I think I see the start of sharp hackle and saddle feathers.

#3 - Probably a boy. A fairly prominent red comb even if a pea comb. No wattles. Legs kind of heavy. An upright posture.

Sorry but I think all three are boys.

To me, all three look like cockerels. Number two without a doubt in my mind based on coloring alone. That color pattern (with the red on the wings starting to come through) is a typical rooster coloration.

I see the starts of hackles, curled tail feathers, and a few other identifiable features that have me leaning towards cockerels.

I'm going with all boys as well.

Sorry but I concur (but I am a novice). No typical female feather patterning. With EE, if their coloring is bright and striking, they're probably boys. Girls tend to have that mottled partridge appearance. That's been my experience anyway.

I'm confident #2 and 3 are cockerels. #1 may surprise us but the color pattern is more indicative of males.
