Hi all! I was wondering if anyone cared to guess on this one? S/He is 4 weeks old and slightly larger than the 3 other EEs we got with her/him. S/He has a slightly more pink comb as well. I'm thinking roo, but I'm new to EEs and really not sure. Thanks!

Yes, probably a cockerel.

Splotchy coloring and pink comb I think you are right and it is a roo as well.

No guessing required. That's a cockerel.

The splotchy red patches & pinkish comb make him look like a male to me.

Thanks everyone! We were hoping for a roo in this group so were pretty glad. Thanks for confirming.

Hi aekin. The chick in your avatar is really cute. My daughter has been wanting a chick like that so she could name it 'Little Miss Poof'

My roo Cecil. Lavendar Americauna. Straight comb= Easter Egger. Such a good boy to his girls. I wish he had a tail, but I am told that lavendar goes with broken feathers.

Breed him to a black EE hen and then breed her female offspring back to him. This will recapture the lavender color and strengthen the feathers so you will have lavenders with good feathers.

Looks like one I had that was a roo.

His neck glows golden in the sunlight. His tail is teal green not beetle green and his wings and body have a purple sheen to the black.
