I say pullet...I know EEs are different from other chickens, but I still see lots of feathering and tail feathers.OK experts, how often does this coloring turn out to be a hen? This baby is only 2 weeks but, I love guessing games so I figured I would start posting progressive feathering for my fellow newbies.Thanks in advance for your expertise I have been reading through this thread for awhile.
No real discernible comb but, again only 2 weeks old. Those big feet concern me....
Sure hope so! I too am voting pullet as well. If I am lucky enough for early feathering to hold true then I may have ended up with 5 pullets and 1 roo..... probably not though....
I'm not sure if it is just the photo but the comb looks quite pink to me and the general patchiness of flooring leads me to believe it's a roo.This is an updated picture of "Suzy." I posted a picture of this chick about a week and a half ago. So this weekend, "Suzy" will be 4 weeks. I've noticed some aggressive behavior and still wondering what people think. Thanks for your input!
Tough one to call, again not sure if it's just me but there is a pinkish shade on the comb. How many rows on it's comb? I have read 3 rows signifies a male while single is female. That is beautiful and interesting coloring and the tail feathers are down but appear to be a bit curved on the ends, again could just be that pose. I would lean towards cockerel but it may indeed be a pullet. Perhaps another photo in a different pose?6 week picture of Ginger to update. What do you think? The red continues in the same color down the back and tail. Has the same amount of feathering and the same sized feet as the other three, which everyone said were pullets. Supposed to be a hatchery-sexed pullet.
I'm still going to go with pullet on Ginger due to the fact that the red is all over and not in patches like debid said. If it was only on the shoulders and not all over the wing then I would be worried, but it's not so I think you're safe. You'll probably keep second guessing her until you get that first egg though!6 week picture of Ginger to update. What do you think? The red continues in the same color down the back and tail.
