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

[Wishing4Wings]

I'm a chicken newbie and hatched 3 EE eggs. Two of the 3 are smaller, barely have combs and are the brownish-orange color with black tipped wings. They are all just over 1 month old.
This is "Chicky Lee", whom I believe is a cockerel....the legs are huge compared to the others, plus Chicky is bigger in body size but still fuzzy. The comb is developing more than the others and is turning red.

Well, for whatever reason my pics won't post here, but they are posted on my profile page.

I need to find Chicky a home as I'm not zoned for roosters

Sorry, maybe you could try posting again.

Is your rooster grown yet? Mine looks the same at 8 1/2 weeks and I'm curious what he will look like fully developed. He is starting to get some brown on his wings, but is mostly black and white.

Mine about 8 Weeks now, he is probably one of my favorite roosters out of my batch, and I have another that looks very similar to him too but is skinnier and has a dirtier white. I think that the black and white ones are very handsome! Here is a pic of both of mine:

They're all hunched up in these pictures because it was cold out, so it's not their nor my best photography.

Here is mine at the same age. He is the laziest of the bunch, so it's hard to get a good shot of him standing up. Looks a lot like your pic#2. The second picture shows him with my EE Rooster. Thanks for sharing.

Mine looked like that too. Heres a picture of him when he was a bit older (right before I sold him):



Thanks for sharing. I am so excited to see how he will turn out. Your rooster is very handsome.

Can anyone tell me what sex my EEs are? I have 7 and 1 is a frizzle. They are 2 months old and getting color to their combs but no wattles. Here are some pictures of them.

Bearded birds rarely show wattles. The bearding gene suppresses their growth.

Pictures of the whole chick is much more helpful for me than just the head.

Hi everybody. I'm new to this. First post and all that. This is Mirielle. She (?) is supposed to be a two month old EE pullet, but lately she's been looking suspiciously rooster-like. Just wondering what you guys think.

Here's a beter side veiw of her. I really didn't want roos in my layer pen so I'm really hoping pullet. She's so pretty I'd hate to have to rehome her

Btw she doesn't actually live in the house. I just thought I'd get beter lighting inside ;-)
