I've been told my 7 week old EE is a pullet, but her comb looks awfully RED to me! Also, any guesses

[Naliez]

My 7 week old EE has a small comb, but it is very red. I've heard that EEs are usually docile and friendly, but this one is slightly aggressive with the others and definitely not as friendly. We are trying to figure out which ones we can keep and which ones need to be rehomed. (No roos allowed in our area) I've never had EEs before, so any help would be great!




And just for fun, here's Hoot. Anybody have a similar looking EE as a little one with adult pictures now? I would love a Wheaten or splash. I think she's so pretty and I can't wait to see how she looks in a few weeks!

Hi, your chicks are so cute!!
There is actually a whole thread on sexing EEs. Hope that helps, I don't have much experience with EEs

I'm leaning towards pullet on your unknown Easter Egger, but I'm not sure.

It looks to me like your EE is beginning to develop three rows of peas in its comb (although the outer two rows are very tiny) so I'm leaning toward cockerel.

I'm seeing that also. It's hard to tell with this one.
