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

Here is our EE #2, Muffin. She too was 5 weeks on Wednesday. We think she is a Snowy Easter Egger. Any thoughts on hen/roo? Hopefully you can see her well enough. I realized to late she was next to the white wall.

No way to tell on a solid colored chick this young. You'll have to watch and wait.

That's a pullet. And she is gorgeous.

Really??? Oh that's so relieving... I was told she could be a roo. She's so pretty, and very sweet.. I'd be so sad if I couldn't keep her

At least!
He's going to be a very pretty boy when he grows up. The EE rooster I kept last year was partially laced and I got a couple of very nice looking pullets off of him.

Yeah! I hope my sister will let me keep him. (She's not a fan of EE roosters)

Nice!

We added 4 Easter Eggers into our new flock this year. With being complete newbies, does anyone have any ideas if our girl is a girl? She was 5 weeks this Wednesday.

Pullet for now.

I could still go either way on this. Keep updating us!

Some updated pics of my (probable) roo. This one is picked on quite a bit, and has had it's feathers plucked out of its back a few times, but they are growing back in now. The feather color is still a little purplish pink from the pick-no-more. It's comb is pinker than my others, but barely raised. It is the most fearful and timid. Thoughts?

I finally got pics of our last 2 Easter Eggers. Thinking the lighter is a hen, darker one unsure. Both are 5 weeks, 2 days in the pics.
Lighter one is Rose and Darker one is Penny. Any thoughts?
