Hi. This is my 7 week old easter egger. I have read that easter eggers don't have combs and wattles. Mine clearly does. Also, No. 1, named due to the fact it hatched first, behaves mostly like a pullet. However, the last week seems to be trying to crow in the mornings. Although it doesn't sound like a classic crow. Any thoughts?

that is 100% a rooster.

Agreed. He started crowing this week.

Agreed. He started crowing this week.

do you need to get rid of him then?

do you need to get rid of him then?

No. I can have roosters. He is my only easter egger at the moment so I was hoping for a pullet.

is it one of those silkied/frizzled easter egger? because they don't usually have frizzled feathers.

No. Not a silkie. A friend gave us eggs to hatch. He said it was an Easter egger.
