I did have a roo, but that was about 3 months ago and he was only a few months old.
 
That EE looks 100% girl to me...Boys don't come in that color. Post her on the 'breed/gender' thread for more answers :)
 
In the newer pics, it looks more like a hen. I'm no expert on sexing EE but I think separating it and then checking fertility is a great idea. The drawback to that is, that a hen can remain fertile for up to 4 weeks (though usually it's more like 2 weeks) after breeding.
 
Update! My Easter Egger has finally proven herself to be a lady. She laid her first egg!

Which means if my eggs are in fact fertile, the girls would have to have been fertilized three months ago by my frizzle roo.

How is this possible?

Here is a photo of her egg!
 
4 months I do not think is possible, you might post pics of the rest of your flock lol, you have fertile eggs and now you know this girl is not a he. I say post pics of all your flock. You got a male somewhere lol
 
Oh, I just read all the posts,,

So this one is a hen after all? Now I am really curious!

yep, has to be a male somewhere! Three months isn't possible at all.
