Pullet.

Agreed.

I asked about my last EE pullet hope a few weeks back and would love some guesses now that she is 8 weeks old. She has no muffs, white legs, and her face feathers are not in yet.

Looks like a pullet. The comb isn't big enough or red enough for a cockerel.

Oh yay! That makes me so happy!

I also have a Meyer's EE that I'm thinking might be a male as well. We will try to get pictures of that one tomorrow.

Oh don't say that! I have 7 chicks coming from Meyers in the next day or two, 3 EEs, 2 BAs and 2 White Rocks. Can't have any of them being boys.

Quote: I have a couple that hatched this spring from my flock and they have no tails (one male, one female so I'll have to make sure to not keep the boy). Somewhere in my chickens (and I know where they came from) is the tailless gene.

They all look like pullets to me. Watch for the starting of red in the wings, that is a sure sign of a cockerel for the last two pictures, but they're looking girly to me!

Thanks.
I see no sign of red/rust/orange on the black and white or gray and white ones.

We always prepare to have atleast one boy when we order.. We didn't but I'm pretty sure we have atleast two boys..

The lighter colored one on the left is the one we are thinking is a male..3 rows.. Bit of red..

We've compared Loki to some of her younger siblings and have concluded that she is infact a girl.. She has some known brothers out there.
