Easter Egger Sexing "tips and tricks" *Pictures Included*

Hello all! Just checking in to see if you all have an educated guess on this one, it is 4 weeks old.

Looks like a pullet so far. No signs of being a male. A little young to be sure, but I'm thinking you've got a pullet.

Thanks everyone, I'll repost in a couple weeks for another look!

Thanks! Honestly, that's why I posted today. And I was soooooo hoping for some green/blue eggs. Hopefully he'll get along with my other rooster. He hatched from a blue egg. Does that mean he'll pass the blue egg color?

The comb is starting to turn pink, and the shoulders are very patchy, with some red just starting to come in. I think it's probably a boy.

He might. With the pea comb, odds are good that he has at least on blue egg gene.

I GOT IT!!!!!!

Finally!!!!!!!!!! It's SOOOOOOO pretty!!!! June the silver partridge colored one followed me out of the coop as I went to refill their water, and she turned right back around and hopped back into the cabinet and the egg just FELL right out of her. She looked mortified!! Lol OMG just made my day....
You can see in the cabinet is Dorothy's brown egg (which SHOULD have been blue!) a golf ball for moral support and June's fancy blue egg!

Saved a little chick today from freezing and dying. It was still wet some from being in the incubator. Someone had it with others that had all sold and the brooder battery went out. I get to keep it. Is it a pullet?

That chick is only about a week old. It's much too young to even guess. Post again after 6 weeks.
