View attachment 1875581 View attachment 1875580 View attachment 1875577 Thanks for keeping this thread going! I have an EE that I hope is a pullet. She’s about 12 weeks old now. Her form is so similar to my older EEs that I felt fairly certain but recently started doubting. What do you think?

Pullet

Thank you! So glad. Yes, she is a beauty. My daughter will be so relieved too.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone can help me sex my 4 week old Easter Egger. He/She is the only Easter Egger we have, but we have other chicks the same age... Here are some pics. Thanks

Too young to be sure, but the comb looks male.

Can you post a face on comb pic that shows the whole head?

Oh, I hope it’s a She. And his/her name is Nellie. I got him/her as a sexed female from a feed store...

Comb is not looking good for you there. Should know more here in a couple weeks

Thank you. I’ll post again in 1-2 weeks to see if he’s still looking cockerel-ish

the pattern across her back and wings is a female pattern only. Males cannot sport that pattern. She is a lovely pullet.

What color was she as a day old chick?
