I think my pullet is a roo

[dlamb82]

so I just got into chickens and I’m pretty sure this rookie got taken! My 4 year old son wants a white chicken that lays green eggs. They exist, they’re called Snowy Easter Eggers and My Pet chicken carries them but I am not paying that much money for 1 chicken. I found someone selling Easter eggers and I noticed one was white. I told the lady I was looking for a pullet and she told me she was pretty confident that the chick was a pullet. “She” is 4 weeks old and is supposedly a leghorn Easter Egger cross. As I said I’m new to chickens and just out my big girls outside in the coop/pen today for the first time. Anyways...what do you all think? Pullet or roo?

Can't see comb color with the red light but it looks pretty developed already.

Would be better to have a straight on comb shot in normal lighting, but it does look like a pretty intense comb from what I can see. I'd say cockerel based on this pic, but maybe you could post some others.

Hard to tell in the heat lamp lighting. The comb is pretty large for 4 weeks old. I would say cockerel. Are you able to post more pictures of “her” comb and face?
Thank you!

Can you get a better pic of her head with the wattle included?

I agree, in that picture it looks like a cockerel.

26.95 is alot for a chicken but you get at least a 90% chance of it being female.
I don't think yours is though.

$26.95 plus shipping. I can get a white Ameraucana POL pullet for that kind of money.

And if you have a farm store that orders pullets, it isn't that rare to find a yellow EE in the bin.

Here's my white-ish EE pullet at 4.5 weeks. She has a cushion comb so no rows but it's still pale and undeveloped.
