Well what i think is the "rooter" may be a rooter... does "he" act scared or look annoyed when you hold or are around the hens or other members of the flock?
One kids thinks this is a rooster?

He is a rooster, but my EE roosters didn't crow very loud and I had one that didn't crow until he was 23 weeks old!

Okay, I showed all of these posts to my dad, and he STILL thinks you all are dumb...
i tell him that you guys ("internet people") might actually know a thing or two...
i wish i could convince him somehow and prove him wrong...as he is usually right about everything
stubborn old dude. lol

First CockADoodleDoo second why would your father think it's a hen? It screams rooster even though it doesn't say a word
Many of my roosters DON'T crow only the King and his Court bother.Yours is an Easter Egger that may or may not pass on the green egg genes...you would need to know his parent stock.

thanks for all of your helps guys and gals!
I think i might have enough (because of all of you
) info to to prove that HE is, in fact...a rooster
now we are gonna make plans to separate it from the rest of the flock when the hens start laying (we don't want bloody eggs!)
... we might actually try breeding the little bastards!!
thx again, for all of your help everyone!

Bloody eggs?
My girls love having their man in the run with them. He finds treats for them and is their protector. If you're going to separate him and he is going to be all alone, I would think it would be better for all of them if you re-home him instead.

I think what Glameow is saying, is that they don't want fertile eggs.

Why would you get bloody eggs from the rooster? Him mating with the hens won't have any affect on them other than being fertile (aka able to hatch into chicks).
