I was wondering if they were "supposed to" be males or females, or if they were totally random picks. My very first EE was purchased as a "pullet chick", but grew up to be a big ugly rooster. An EE hen I bought as an older chicken, the owner said they got her for free, as a "cockerel" chick, also a mistake!
Last spring I bought 4 EE "pullets". For a long time I was thinking I had 4 boys, that there must have been a mix-up at the hatchery. They all looked tall, long necked, and hawk-faced, and all looked male to me. After 3 months, it started to look like only 2 were boys. Eventually only 1 of the 4 was actually a boy.
Both my EE roosters had fierce, angry eyes. The EE hens eyes look gentle. They all have hawkish faces, but the roosters' faces get fiercer looking as they mature. Some of my EE hens have "worried" sounding voices.
