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

I just picked up 4 EE chicks. I very suspicious of one chick being a cockrel. What do you all think?

This chick is 5 weeks old.

This chick is 5 weeks old.

He looks like a boy, the red wing patches and big comb even though it's still pale.

These are my chicks. Are they females? Their both Ameraucanas.

They look Girlish to me, but I've never seen an EE like #3.  The tail may be curving down.  However, if it were a roo, I think you'd be seeing (or hearing) more male traits by 12+ weeks.  I'll lean toward pullet for that one too.

I think the Cochin in it is what's making the tail feathers do that. I hope so anyway! Definitely appears to be a pullet. So stinkin cute!

Number 1 is a boy and number 2 looks like a girl.

How old? I want to say cockerel because of the red leakage on the wings. Take a look at the hackle feathers (back of the neck) are they pointy or rounded? If they are pointy it's a cockerel.

Here's the best picture of what the neck looks like that I have.

Thanks guys. I obviously thought it might be, but this confirms it.
