Is Hedwig a rooster?

[AKMotherClucker]

This is Hedwig, our 6 week old Easter Egger. Every time I lay eyes on her this past week, the tail feathers yell rooster at me. She was purchased (along with a slew of other females) as a sexed female Easter Egger from Murray mcmurray... But I'm having doubts. Is our Hedwig a rooster??

Yeah he's not being fully convincing of a rooster but with those sickle feathers and that comb I'd say Hedwig is a rooster. Hope you can keep him he's very colourful.

Thank you for the help. Unfortunately we live close to neighbors and won't be able to keep him unless he is super quiet
Hopefully the feathers are just playing tricks on me. What about the comb says roo? The color?

The comb looks roo-ish for that age, and the tail feathers are sickled. Hes gorgeous though!

Yeah even though the comb isn't very red it is still quite big for that age, especially because it is a pea comb and then tend to be very small in females.
Compare it to your other EE's in the flock
