Great! I'm ready to post and we're talking colors... do any of these have a 'color'? ~other than... pretty. and Please tell me there are NO boys!! I have my suspicions about the dark-headed one in the first picture.




This guy, front and center, with the big hoofers and and comb that's looking a lil pinkish ~ they are 6 weeks old.



Oh, and another suspect...

I think all are pullets except the blue one (last photo), that could be a boy.

We have hens all of similar coloring to yours, right down to the blue one in the last photo. Nice to see other EE's of similar coloring.

Celtic: good to hear! They just look so pretty to me! I hope they are girls. The one with the dark head even acts rooish.

I wouldn't give him away just yet though. To me, those aren't enough photos to fully assess, but so far looks to be all pullets.

Thank you!!!! I believe I get it but still slightly confused but not sure how lol. Very Pretty EE's

I got an EE from the feed store last week and I have never had one before. It came with 2 Wellies we were getting 3 Wellies but one ended up with funny colored feet. I only have the one and nothing really to compare it to I was wondering if anyone has some pics starting off at a few days old then one every week or every two weeks just to see the progress and to see how the different sexes change through the stages. I am doing this with my little ones so I can have this info to help others.

 

[Blarneyeggs]

Illia, was that to me? If so, I will give them another week and then post pictures of the most likely suspects.
 

 

[Illia]

Yep, to you

I think I should have posted my ee sexing question here (or maybe even started a new thread) rather than post in the EE Braggers thread. But could the experts pretty please go here and check my nearly 5 week old EE chicks? Mine is post 6309. Thanks a TON!
