Pullet or roo?

[sben451]

I need help in determining the sex of my EE chicks. They were hatched on March 14.

Any educated guesses??

I'm going to guess all pullets.. but 2 and 4 are looking big combed..

I would say all pullets....I have one that is a pullet (hopefully) from an Illinois Farm & Home store and it looks like a mix of all of these!

What breed are yours I have no idea on mine, just that she is a Easter Egger???

 

[sben451]

These are Easter Eggers, hatched from eggs from Gabbard Farms.

They all are pretty birds. (I'm not even going to guess on the sex as I have my own inquiry post)

ok.....is Easter Egger a breed or a breed "nick name"?

Not a breed. An Easter Egger is what we call mutt chickens that usually have green legs, cheek puffs, lay colored eggs, and come in a aray of colors.

agreed.

EE= mixed breed chicken that carries the blue egg gene (Only true requirement ). They do however "tend" to have green legs, pea combs and/or puffy cheeks... none of which are required. There is no breed standard so they come in any color and types. One of the most popular hatchery variety of chickens.... 1 have some

I even have a customer that will only buy green eggs, I think she must craft with them

so.....are Ameraucana and Araucana both breeds that are not Easter Eggers but Easter Eggers could be either or them or any mix of those and anything else as long as they lay blue/green eggs?

2, 4 &5 are cockerals. I am leaning more twards cockeral for 3 also because of the coloring, would wait a few weeks though
only one that looks like an obvious pullet to me is 1
