I have three Easter Egger's but I am not sure if they are hens or not. They are all supposed to be hens, but I just want to be sure. Can anyone help sex them? They are 14 weeks old. The close ups in the pictures are of the two I suspect to be roosters. One is black and white, and the other is mixed brown. They both have similar tail feathers, while the third one is mixed brown also, and has a tail that sticks straight out. Any information would be helpful. Thanks!

EEs are easier than you think if you go by feather pattern instead of comb size like you would with many other breeds. There are usually distinct differences between male and female patterns.

I would say that, based on the last three photos:
