Easter Eggers

[Livengoodfarm]

Hello all, thank you for taking the time to help me out. I have 3 Easter Egger chickens I bought as a straight run from the local feed store. They are around 10 weeks old. I am fairly certain one is a rooster however I am going back and forth over the other two.

I believe the white/black one is a pullet? Orange one pullet or rooster?
Dark red/black is a rooster...this is one I’m sure about.
What are everyone’s opinions? This is my first time raising Easter Eggers.
Thanks in advance!

Such pretty birds! I agree with you, pullet, pullet, cockerel. Perhaps you've already done this, but try looking at their neck feathers. Cockerels will usually have thin pointy feathers and pullets will usually have wider more rounded feathers.

The only male I see is the dark brick colored bird. Pretty mix of colors!

Thank you! I’m very excited about them!! I have looked at their neck feathers and the only one that seems different is the one I’m sure is a rooster.

At 10 weeks, its too soon for male specific feathering; like pointed hackles and saddles, but they would be coming soon.
Do you have any side shots of both of the red ones? The white and gray is a pullet, with a specific female feather pattern.

I can get some side shots when I get home.

Ok... that is too adorable. I hope Johnny turns out to be a total bad a$$, in a good way.

Here are the pictures I got. They aren’t the best.

Yea, the rust wing bars that are coming in say that those are cockerels. Along with the redness of the comb on the darker one.
