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

[Wishing4Wings]

Hello, I would like some assistance in determining the genders of the following EE's if possible. They are 9 weeks old in these photos.
(Parents (The male is a Wheaton Amerucana and the females are basic EE's. One white/black, one yellow/black, and the other one, partridge feathering.) Thanks.




This looks like a cockerel. Rusty rerd coloring on wings and red comb.


Next, the twins. One has a patterned breast, the other more solid color. The Wheaten father has alot of orange, and of course, the mahogany red. (really want a female out of these two, but.....)





The one on the left looks like a boy. Not so sure of the one on the right, but am suspecting cockerel also. They all look very sweet!!!

The next one......








Thinking this is a pullet.


And then one that is the Wheaten Amerucana with a Blue Wyandotte......











I'm not as familiar with the blues, but the comb doesn't have much color, so I think a pretty pullet here.


Thanks so much!!!

Thank you Wishing4 wings, you are usually spot on...sure hoping one of those twins is a girl

The little grey/blue's comb is actually turning more gray/black. She's the only one in the bunch.?

Yep, looks like I'm boy heavy on this batch.

The more I read the pages here, the more I am loving my EE's. I can't wait to see how my 3 1/2weeks old babies look when grown. I will post pics at 5 weeks? I am starting to see some grey coming in on mine. It's like Christmas!

Take a guess, no expert. Thinking #1 roo due to comb with 3 rows and red shoulder patches.
Think #2 is roo....due to comb and looks like sickle tail feathers (pointy) at the tail. ??Hope I'm wrong....

Looks like they will mature into pretty birds.
The red/mahogany/orange on a male is striking, especially at the shoulders....And I so love the black cape on the second one. I want a female with black cape now....

Adrian is definitely a roo! What a big comb for such an adorable little body, hehe!
Do you see any pointy feathers coming in Darcy? Her comb looks very light and though it is a little big for only 7 weeks, but I'm gunna have to guess pullet with that coloring and body shape!
I think her tail and the way she holds it is a lot like my Lotus- very hen-like, as well as her stance. I sure hope she is a pullet!
