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

[Flowerbh]

Well if you have no crowing wait for an egg! Can you keep a rooster? Because the is the cutest chicken. Is the comb that dark in person because on my moniter the greens are really saturated so the reds would be too and looks overcast but the pullet next to this one has same color on the face.

I don't see any wattle development. She looks something like mine.

I posted this on the OE thread but got no response. Maybe someone here can help since this is a more active thread
I'm thinking the one on the right may be a roo. It's the same one as I. The individual pic. They are about three weeks old now. What do you think? Thanks!

I don't know, but pretty birds. Someone with more experience will respond to you soon. Stay in touch. (Perhaps better pictures would be helpful.)

See the downy patch on the wing? That needs to fill in and a front-side shot where the chest can be seen will be helpful. I suggest updated photos in another week or two when the feathers are in.

These two are notoriously difficult to photograph and are extremely flighty. I will get hubby to help me catch them this weekend and see if we can get some better pictures. These two are constantly together and scream like a banshee if you pick them up. Strange little creatures!

Anyone have any ideas on these two? They are 4.5 weeks old, having aggression issues with them towards the other 18 chicks.

Here are some updated photos of my two "pullets." I'm afraid they still seem like cockerels to me.

Bit early to tell, but wouldn't be surprised if the top one is a cockerel. Looks like the white is coming in on the wings.
Not sure on the bottom one.

Yeah, I think you might be right. How old? Are the combs pink?

I am trying to sex these birds. I was told they were Amerecauna but when I posted in their thread I got a resounding no. So now to try to sex the EE's I was told they were all pullets but I have a sneaky suspicion about Elizabeth. That would be the white one. They were hatched on 02/22/2013. All except for that last one. It was hatched 03/12/2013. Elizabeth Elizabeth Cleopatra Cleopatra Catherine Catherine No name, what color will I be? Again my little no name.

Elizabeth is a pullet! She looks exactly like my little kimchi
