I've got a silver and rust Easter egger (Nutella) that has rooster behavior and pretty certain is a rooster. Also have a Delaware (Joey) that does not have rooster behavior so I'm wondering if it's just early development? 10 weeks old. These were sexed from Cackle.

Agreed. The Easter Egger has male-specific coloring. The Delaware is much to developed for only 10 weeks old so is also likely a cockerel.

The Delaware shouldn’t have all that black leakage (?) either. Maybe a hatchery quality issue I don’t know enough about them. I had a couple but one of mine confused me right up until she laid an egg
