Male? Female? About 9 weeks old.

Pretty sure she's female! Small yellow comb, slim legs, typical pullet pattern (she has the salmony orange, not the bright red).

This is a side-view of the same bird. Do male EEs grow wattles at all?

Most EE do not grow wattles

Just when you think you have your EEs figured out, you end up with a pullet that has all three rows raised in the pea comb :/ Good thing I held on to her even though everyone thought Bernice was Bernie! She's gorgeous

Carolinahen she's beautiful. My hen also has three raised rows on her comb. Kept me guessing for almost two months.

Thanks Califarmgirl These EEs can surely keep you guessing can't they? Guess that's part of their intrigue!
