Is this a hen?

[Ekmurph]

This Easter Egger looks similar to my others but it’s not laying yet. I brought the chicks (now hens) home on March 26 when they were 1 or 2 days old. Now, 8 of 9 are laying. Just double checking that this one is in fact a hen. Doesn’t crow but also doesn’t lay or show signs of laying. Thanks for the insight! I’m very much a newbie and learning!

I'm not sure I never had any EE did you buy a straight run or pullets

Ok, I'm pretty new here, but that looks like a beautiful Ameraucana hen. I'm interested in the breed and have been looking at lots of pictures.

Supposedly pullets but they said they’re is a chance for a rooster or 2

Pullet.

My EEs are the exact same age and one seems very far behind the other in terms of laying.

Pullet. Looks like you won't have to wait much longer for eggs.

Girl, for sure.

She’s an Easter Egger, or a mixed breed that lays blue/green.

Great to hear! This one acts so different than the rest! She sprints around everywhere like a roadrunner!
