What kind of chicken is this?

[Shannarach]

Does anyone know what kind of chicken this is? I received it as a “started pullet” a little over a month ago. It’s supposed to be an Easter egger but as I understand they are bearded. Does anyone know what it is?

Male Easter Egger. They can come without muffs. It's a rooster, though.

That’s what I was thinking! But I am new to chickens. What identifies it as a rooster?

Really everything. His comb, his male-specific feathers, his male-specific color pattern....

Not all are bearded. Nice looking.
