Scared to even ask!

When do combs start turning pink on Easter eggers?! Please tell me these 2 “girls” are in fact, pullets. First 3 pics are bird 1, last 2 pics are bird 2.

They are both pullets. They have nice coloring.

Oh thank goodness! The first one is my son’s favorite and we can’t have roosters, so that’s a relief.

Very pretty pullets. Don't worry, they are indeed girls.

Those are pullets. The comb doesn't have rapid growth like a cockerel, and around this age is when pullet's combs turn pink-red.

Phew! Thanks you guys! I feel like every time some one has to ask, the response is always cockerel so I was definitely nervous to ask

Definitely hens.

1 is definitely a hen, but those rust colored shoulder patches on 2 have me concerned. @EmmaRainboe ? Thoughts?

Easter Egger females can have rust-colored shoulder patches. If they were male, they would have rapid comb growth at this age.
