Yeah I'm getting better. I had my thoughts on 4 wasn't positive but did notice the red. You guys are teaching me :) I love guessing on this thread. This is the first time I've msg my guess.
 
I posted this in a different thread, but I know this thread gets a lot of views. Do I have three and three? If I need to wait a while still and get better photos, please let me know. They just got put in their coop this weekend and outside for the first time. They are 5 1/2 weeks old, bantams.

That blue looks like a girl at the moment, but if that comb pinks up then I would say boy. But the others you think are Cockerals look like it with that red coming on their wings.
 

6 week old EE. Supposed to be one of three pullets. Is there any chance that this is a she, with that coloring? He/she has one very clear row of peas and two barely distinguishable ones on either side.
Should I hold out any hope for a girl?

LAST CHANCE... He goes back in the morning if he's a male. Lots of red on wings & getting more each day. He is a tad larger than the other 2 I got with him, not to mention his comb is thicker and pinker than the other two. I'll tell u though....if it does end up being a pullet I'll be disappointed cause it has beautiful colors coming in!!! :(

I'm thinking cockerel based on coloring, and partially on comb development.

I have no idea, just wanted to say he/she is BEAUTIFUL!!! I hope one of mine turn out like that.

Looks just like a Pullet! See the even pattern? That's a female EE trait. Splotchy coloring males usually!
