I have been wobbling back and forth on this chicken being a boy or a girl for a month now...some days i am definitely sure it's a pullet and some days i am thinking he is a Roo.

I am seriously wanting her to be a girl, cuz i will have too many roo's if she is a boy.

She is almost 18 weeks and has always had more of a curled tail feathers, even when very young....and up until now her pea comb has very small and light, just like my other EE pullets.

Here s/he is, with another EE behind her of the same age, are those saddle feathers i see coming in? or not?

Here s/he is standing to the left of my known EE roo, for comb comparison

here is a pic trying show her hackle feathers and another view of the comb, again with my known EE roo to her left:

I have lots of EE's and this is the only one that has me stumped...i have not heard a crow or had an egg yet

i only have one PR that is laying right now, she is 24 weeks.
 
I have 3 EE's that are about the same age, no eggs yet either! But by just looking at her, i think it's a pullet. I don't see saddle feathers, but that's just my personal oppinion! and I've heard the most EE's lay later then most, maybe around 9 months or so. Good luck!!!
