Enjoy your babies!
This is Sven. Ole's son.
He is going to be my one of my two Roosters, I plan to use this year with my EE's.
I am hoping Ole has his mothers personality. Ole was not a mean bird just a serial rapist that was banished. I like the tail on Sven.
It is so unkempt.
This one to me looks like a roo, but I'm not 100% they are about 16 weeks old that's an estimation. I don't have a name for this one yet still working on it
The little one who is mostly white I have called her Snow White! We have two Rhode Isalnd reds and a barred rock who's name is toes... I'll show you why!!
We are planning on getting some more.. This is just our small flock for now!
Your black and white Easter Eggers look to be about 8 to 10 weeks old, and they both look like cockerels. And Toes the Barred Rock is 100% definitely a cockerel. The white bars are too wide for a pullet.

Different comb types will be different in size. Pea combs don't get huge like single combs will, and rose combs are big and wide, but not tall. Males, regardless of breed or comb type, will start to turn pink by about 10 weeks old, and are very red by about 14 weeks. Pullets, generally, don't even start to turn pink in the combs until about 14 weeks. Male specific feathering will begin to develop at about 10 weeks, but isn't usually really obvious until 14 to 16 weeks.How can you tell that the EEs are cockerels? And toes? I know you said stripes but is that the only give away... And wouldn't they have combs and waddles by now? What about this one,?
