Not an Easter Egger?

[FarmerMama7]

We thought we got 4 easter eggers (the guy building our coop let the kids pick out some chicks), but when I made a post asking about gender, someone pointed out that this guy's legs aren't the usual gray color for an EE, and that it might not be an EE.

So, any idea what breed it is? And if it is a male or female? We're thinking male...he's 6 weeks old.

Not an EE for sure! It looks like a NH or badly colored RIR hatchery stock.

Reminds me of a more mature version of my Red Sex Links

So if it is a sex link bird, can you tell the gender of this one? Sorry, I'm still new to this

 

[EweSheep]

Oh yes, Red Sex Links but males are usually white or red and white combo in color

unless it is mixed and lays a somewhat colored egg (maybe there was an ee far back in its heritage) I had a normal lookin barred rock once that layed ligggghhhht green egg

male or female..... humm how old are they now....kinda looks like a male new ham hatchery stock maybe ....how do the back feathers look?

(just noticed you said 6 weeks) I think male

 

[FarmerMama7]

He is 6 weeks old...pretty much all brown except for some black up by the neck. Here's a better picture of the back
