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

Ok thank you I was thinking just one cockerel and I wasn't sure how they molted and changed colors because I've never had "normal chickens" before

How old is the bird?  Comb looks like a pullet, but a clear close straight on shot would help.  That color looks more gold than rooster red. 

Went back and looked.  At originals.  Need an age.  Is the color of the comb more accurate in this pic (red) or the close up posted earlier (pale)?

Both look like girlies to me

I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me if my chick is a roo. He was picked on so he/she is missing feathers on his back. Thanks

Also hes around 10 weeks old

Cockerel. Those yellowish feathers on the neck are his hackle feathers growing in.

Thank you i was afraid of that. I really wanted a white/black ee pullet

I think I might have two cockerels because the one is extremely obvious but the first one is getting red around the start of the beak in the feathery area. and four pullets the first two are the cockerels and the rest are my pullets just wanted confirmation and the whole flock.

Only one boy. All others are female.

I wasn't sure because of the red around the beak of the first thank you that makes me happy

I have been told these babies are EEs. Would anyone like to take a shot at sexing them? They came from the miscellaneous tank at Rural King, so they could really be anything.
