Sexing my chick

[ducks2003]

Hello! I have this one month old Easter Egger chick that I’m pretty sure is a rooster. Like the bright color of red in their wings and the way they act. I’m not 100% sure, could you guys give me your opinion? Keeping them regardless of sex.

It has deeper red coloring at the shoulders, and that is one sign it could be a cockerel. But the comb is small and pale. Post more pictures in two or three weeks if it isn't obvious by then.

I agree the rust over the wings is a bit suspicious. However, it is still too young to accurately sex. Post updated pics in 2-3 more weeks.

Yes, that red definitely looks suspicious. Post updated pics in a couple more weeks.
