Sexing Easter Eggers

How are they looking now?

Both pullets! Was pretty sure at 5 weeks that suspected roo was indeed a roo. Wattles dropped and were bright pink and comb was larger and pink as well. But at 6 weeks, she had a growth spurt and from that point on, comb sort of flattened and appeared to shrink. So weird. But today, I'm certain she's a pullet!

8-9 week old EE. Many indicators of roo, but want to confirm before I rehome him. Am new to chickens and don't want to give one of my babies away.

Now that I know the farm supply store isn't accurate in sexing chicks, I'm nervous about my others....
The blue tail is my suspected roo.
The darker of the b/w ones is one I'm questioning, but I'm pretty sure she's a she. Appreciate any help you can give. Thank you!

Pullets. They all look a bit flushed, must have been excited about you being there!

I’ve been noticing that my EE’s combs look more pink later in the day if they’ve been outside for a while. As opposed to when I first get to their coop in the the morning? Is a flushed comb really a thing? I had no idea!! I was worried they were getting sunburn or all cockerels lol.

He’s a cockerel in my opinion.

The one you questioning looks like a pullet to me also.

I was afraid of that...but not surprised. Thank you!

Wanna know the sex of these EEs.

This is the one I'm most worried about being a roo above. Love this bird. Beautiful bird. Bought 3. All 3 were supposed to be pullets.

Here's it as a baby:

Here's a picture of all 3 of my "girls." 1 is a cross beak. 1 is like 99% sure a female. And the other is the one I'm most worried about.

The pics are blurry on my phone but it appears the red is a pullet and the bird you're worried about is a roo. I don't see the typical red in shoulders and the photo is too blurry to tell if hackles and saddle feathers are pointed but the tail is very erect and it looks as though the feathers might be curling a bit at the ends? I'm so sorry...I know that's not what you want to hear
