Pullet or Cockerel? 5 1/2 Week Old EE’s - SEE UPDATED PHOTOS

[afieldssnowyegger]

I got three Snowy EE girls from My Pet Chicken nearly 6 weeks ago. Supposed to be pullets- we have a suspected boy. I’m going to post all three for comparison.
comb type: Peacomb
Breed: Snowy EE
Age: 5 weeks, 4 days

Chick 1 - Bitty

Chick 2 - Hei Hei

Chick 3 - Fluffy - Suspected Cockerel

Fluffy’s much bigger than the other two, with larger feet, a LOT more comb growth, and comb redness. The other two have one row of their pea comb, Fluffy has three rows (I believe that is another sign of cockerel?).

Thoughts?

I see what you’re saying, but personally I don’t see anything really cockerel-ish.

I don’t see any that are red enough for a cockerel. Fleshy peach or pink usually still means Hen.

Here is my 5 1/2 week cockerel. See the difference in comb/waffle coloring ?

Is it possible my 6 week old is a snowy Easter egger also? She was an adoption chick from Meyers and I don’t know what she it and is she a he?

 

[afieldssnowyegger]

Looks almost exactly like mine

Also, the lighting was not showing the color, but is is definitely red. The other girls have the peachy coloring, but Fluffy’s is very red.

Looks just like mine, but the Snowy Easter Egger label is just what My Pet Chicken called them. They’re really just white EE’s

Got some better lighting for the pics of Fluffy’s comb redness!!!
