Sexing Easter Eggers

[ElimAcres]

Ok, I feel like the Easter Eggers are a little trickier to sex than previous breeds I've had. I think it's the varying shapes of their combs that throws me off. Anywho, I have some that I want to confirm with you all. They are 6 weeks old.

Barbie: (presumed pullet)


Peach: (presumed pullet)



Speedy: (presumed pullet)


No name....yet : (presumed pullet)


And I'm guessing little roo on this one as his comb is much brighter red, he has lighter colored barring and we'll, frankly acts like one. Does that all sound correct?


Ok, let me know how I did! Between these guys and the Silkies I'm about to go nuts trying to guess genders.

Your guesses are correct! May I suggest names for the unnamed?

Go for it! The kids are the ultimate deciders though. I'll pass the suggestions along and see if they bite on any of them.

6 weeks seems a little young to be too sure for me, but it looks like you’re right.

Let me know if the kiddos like any of these @ElimAcres.

 

[Painted Calls]

I agree with your guesses too.

Your Barred Rock is the only cockerel.

Your Barred Rock is the only cockerel.

He's an Easter Egger, plymouth rocks don't have pea combs.

Oh, yes just noticed that. Thank you for correcting me.
