Any help sexing this 5 week old EE chick? We're starting to suspect that it might be a rooster because it looks different from our other 4 EEs: bigger, brighter color, the comb is much wider, and the legs might be thicker (although hard for me to tell). This is my first attempt at posting photos, so I hope this works. We hope to have one rooster in the 14 chicks we have, so it's not a bad thing if this one turns out to be a male. Thanks for any help.

Fascinating. Thanks all for your responses. I guess she gets to keep her name then, Ida Red.
