Ace - Is s/he chest bumping with "Trouble"? If so, then he's 100% rooster. If not... 70% rooster
Trouble - 100% rooster
Nelly - 99% pullet, she's REALLY pretty!

Rory - 100% rooster
Coco - 100% rooster

P.S. If you're wanting to learn how to sex EEs by color, I'd suggest you also look at pictures of Old English Games. It give's you a good idea of what colors=rooster and what colors=pullet.

They all look a little rooish to me except for Nelly.

I think Ace and Nelly are girls, the rest are boys. You should know for sure in a few more weeks.

Yes, lots of chest bumping, chasing and pulling of feathers. What a bummer! I can only keep one of these cockerals, because we already have their daddy out in the coop. Looks like I'll have to make a trip down to the feed store and hope they still have pullets roughly the same size as little Nelly. What to do with all these boys... I'm not really thrilled about giving them away for dinner.

Thanks for the suggestion of looking into OEG. I'd much rather learn how to feather-sex than vent-sex. And thank you all so much for confirming my suspicions.

I disagree with the chest bumping thing. I only have 1 roo and MOST of my pullets chest bump each other as well. My worst is my salmon faverolle, who is 100% for sure a girl!

I think Nelly is your only girl.

Ace is tricky but if you look at his saddle area (the part of his back closest to the tail) you can start to see where the saddle feathers are growing in and where the tail fluff is starting to point downwards. In my experience, all of my EE's that have this end up being boys, regardless what the combs look like. I hope I am wrong though.

Nelly is one VERY pretty girl!

Aw, thank you all for the compliments on Nelly. She has good-looking parents. She does pretty well despite being part of the boys club.
