Is my Easter Egger a Rooster?

[BuckeyeFoodie]

Thank you all for your advice! My wife won't admit that we have a Male Now the question is, how will this affect collecting eggs?

It shouldn't, the only thing that will affect is that obviously a rooster does not lay eggs, so you won't be getting any from him!

Just collect them daily.
No change needed.

Are you asking if he'll be aggressive toward people entering the coop area? Maybe. They are all individuals. Some steer clear of interaction with people and seem to understand their place. Others are bent on being the boss of everything.

I’ve got an EE Roo and he doesn’t give me any problems in egg collecting.

There shouldn't be a problem collecting or eating eggs. The only problem that could arise is if he's people aggressive. If that's the case, I'd suggest getting rid of him, and certainly not breeding him.

Good thing is he is friendly. At night is when he allows me to hold him and pet him
