Hello all, bought these as chicks. Feed store sold them as
Ameraucana chicks but we have since learned these are Easter Eggers. I am so confused on genders. One minute I think they are ladies and then the next they seem like Roos. Any help would be much appreciated. Out of 11 chicks we are getting 5 eggs. They will be 6 months at the end of this month.
I also have 1 Rhode Island Red. I am almost certain that it’s female. Can anyone concur with this?

Oh an don’t mind the rooster. He has recently come to visit our flock but has decided to make it his permanent residence. I have way too many roosters as it is with this chick batch (lesson learned on this btw, looking for just straight pullets next time!!) and I just can’t get rid of him.
 
I've read that ee's can start laying as late as 7 months or so, so some might still be in the works.
You can look at their comb, hens will have a singular pea comb while the male's is wider, three rows.
Sorry not much help I just bought ee's 6 weeks ago so the comb is my only indicator :)
