Got us here 4 EEs, just about 8 weeks. We have 5 laying Barred Rocks outside, soon to be 2. We made some mistakes along the way with the first group, mostly space requirements. Even after remedying the issues, pecking persists so we are essentially starting over and gaining a few dinners.

So here we are, better experienced and hopefully a smidge more knowledgeable with 4 babies in the basement. We bought 4 started pullets. One of the four acts a bit rooster-ish, but I really have no clue. I'm attaching some pics of each in hopes you all may be able to help!! In any event, they are some pretty birds. I've tried to do some reading, and found some ways to sex EEs by color but who knows...

Thanks for any help!! I attached two photos of each. Tried to get colorations and combs best I could. (Second one with a pretty pronounced color difference on head/neck vs body is the main one on question.)
