Hey all you gracious and wise chicken people. I'm super new and so I've been cruising the pictures and descriptions of hackles and combs and feathers and feet. But, I'm still a little confused on how to really identify the traits. I have four easter eggers-- two black and two white.
I assumed (yep.
) I had hens until one morning our alarm didn't go off and I heard what I *thought* was crowing as I came out the door to let them out super late. 
I have a mixed flock, so am having a hard time judging them against one another. Seems that the two white EEs are dominant. And so I started looking more closely.
White & Black: "Fluffy"
White & Golden: "Pearl"
Fluffly sprouted a bit early and is now head chicken of the flock. Has a little darker comb, three-tiered.
They are 11 weeks tomorrow. Is it too early to tell if I got a rooster? or (*gulp*) two?
