Guess the EE gender! (New pics at post #21)

Okay, new photos of Lucinda at about 8 weeks. It's the stubby tail with a hint of curl, the more-or-less triangular body, the largish legs and the later feathering that have me worried. On the other hand, the comb is mostly yellow, with a bit of pink at the skin base, and those feathers all look pretty round to me.

I take them out into the run during the day, although they go back into the brooder in the garage at night (mid 60s during the day but 20s at night). And because they were jealous of the attention to Lucinda, here is a pic of my BR and my Gold/Red sex-link (Billie and Petula):

Lol, well, I'm committed to sticking with "Lucinda" because I adore her. I can't have a rooster, of course, but if she is going to be a he, maybe she'll be the quietest he ever.

See how delusional you can get over a favorite chicken?

I also have to say that my little dumpling pullet Eliza has gotten surprisingly large and aggressive. If Eliza turns out to be an Edward, that's 4 out of 6 pullets that were actually cockerels.
