The dreaded question.. sex this please!

Such is life

Oh.

I'm thinking pullet too, that is a lot of red but it's more spread out than what would scream cockerel.

Here's Hedwig now! Born around March 15th so close to 9 weeks old. Palest of pink/practically flesh colored comb and no thin saddle feathers.

Yep, he's a definite boy, sorry.

The coloration says it's definitely a cockerel.

Around 9 weeks old now. Definitely thinking pullet. I added recent pictures.

Helllllo! I'm typically pretty good at sexing but I'm at a loss with this now 7 week old Easter Egger. Of course it's my favorite so it will inevitably be a cockeral right?
I don't see any saddle feathers and those penciled hackle are always harder for me. So I guess it's the comb that I need help on. Meet Hedwig!

We used to have an Easter Egger named Hedwig! She looked pretty similar to yours but we got her when she was a pullet so I'm no help with the question at hand.

Still thinking cockerel. But a late bloomer.

I see no male saddle feathers, no red comb, no sickle feathers and not very pointed hackle feathers.. why do you think cockeral? Genuinely curious.

Fair enough! Beautiful either way.

The size of the comb (compare it to the pullet behind him), the large feet, and the feather coloration.

Thanks for the explanation. I've only had EE pullets so I haven't seen an EE cockerel develop. Once Hedwig grows up I'll post new pics.
