We hatched eggs at the end of the school year and I was told the eggs could be either speckled sussex, easter eggers, splash, or silkies. I am thinking this 4 1/2-week-old chick is an EE, but I may be getting it wrong. This chick has been way bigger than other chicks that I feel are clearly EE chicks. I didn't witness the hatch and what eggs they came from I just took them home a week after they hatched. I read forums from Backyard Chickens all the time and I know that your gender guesses are almost always accurate. I also know I may be asking for gender identification too soon for this guy or gal, I would just love it if Moose (my name for this chick ) was a pullet. Thank you for your help. I do have EE, Silkie, Polish, and Jersey Giant hens now in my coop and a house chicken name Sugar who is a Light Brahma.
