Rooster? Please help... :)

[chickgrl]

Thank you guys so much!
Can't tell much from the pictures but she is really going to be beautiful! Her color is amazing to me.
I compared some pictures of young roosters at just 12 to 14 weeks and yes there is no sign that she's a he.
So indeed if I was told correctly her age, then I am the proud chicken mama of a girl!!

Not sure what you mean by what kind of comb? Still learning over here.....

I agree, that looks like a pullet Hopefully her feathers will start growing back soon

Some people call it a crown? It's the fleshy part that grows from the top of the head. Roosters have dark red ones, while hens have lighter colors. It's harder to make out the color of it in the pictures but I think it looks fairly light.

oh duh! yea hers is very light. Not very big either, very tiny.

Yeah in the future you can use that as a way to tell the sex of chickens at a younger age. It's not always reliable but most of the time it steers you in the right direction.

She looks like an Easter Egger Pullet with those slate legs, pea comb and cheek muffs.

Agree - female Easter Egger. She will most likely lay a blue/green egg.

Thank you guys
If I can get her to eat......
The three in the picture are barely eating, barely, and I never see them drinking water.
Offered treat yesterday afternoon like I do everyday to all my girls and they didn't even touch what I offered, melon with seeds.
They seem to be tired, standing with their eyes closed alot of the time during the day.
The first day I had them they seemed ok, they went after the crumble like crazy! Now nothing hardly since Saturday morning.

I got what what recommended for the little girls pecked spot on her back yesterday and going to try and get her to let me help her this morning.
Do chickens sometimes have problems adjusting?
I don't know what to do.
They are still in their fenced yard with a view to the coop, trying to get the others used to them being there, how long should I do this?
Or has a couple days been long enough?

I would treat for coccidiosis - with the standing with eyes closed I'd say that could be a factor. Do a search on here for Corrid dosage - you'll need to get some at your local livestock supply store. It can quickly be fatal, so it is worth treating if it is suspected at all.
