Easter Eggers

I am pretty sure these are all pullets, but I am just making sure. They were hatched on 3-22, so they are around 5 weeks old. Thanks everyone!!

#1

#2

#3

And this one was hatched on 3-2, so it is around 8 weeks old. Again, pretty positive it is a pullet.

All appear to be pullets to me.

I hope so! My Aunt has 8 chicks she believes are roos and she said she is going to share. I really want the pullets as I am trying to avoid the chicken math. ( I want more silkie chicks, lol.)

Thanks!!!

Ok so #1 is really starting to make me wonder now. It holds its wings differently and it looks like it has saddle feathers. Here is a pic from May 6th

I had a side view, but I can't find it.

Thanks for the help!!

Pullets i believe. Nice Chicks!

I so hope you are correct! I really don't want a rooster. My Aunt is going to give me a few since she is so over loaded with roosters!

Not to burst your bubble, but Easter Eggers are the hardest to sex! They have very little differences until the pointy hackle/ saddle feathers come in. I played this game for months last summer.

I do love EEs but they are very hard to guess at.

Hi Aunt Cindy!

I think the hackle feather are starting to look pointy. I am watching it. It has a very flat orange comb, which makes me think that it is female, because it looks like my other 3. Only time will tell.
