My black and white was guessed on the forum by 100% of the people to be a pullet!! Yippee!
What do you all think about the major size diffs. and how different the combs are. The smallest brown (Chirpy) is right about the same age (7 weeks) as the black and white (Manny) and her Roo friend (OnRay) with larger brown (Auna) about a week older than the rest. Auna has a strange comb, straight??

Manny (black and white) has a big fat head

when compared to the brown girls. What do you think about
genders on this crew. P,P,R,P??



Little Chirpys skinny little pea comb (I think)

480


Manny (my fat head, part brahma? LOL) and OnRay (cute little bearded boy)



My pinhead EE, Auna. She has a strange comb, used to look like half pea, half straight. Maybe more straight now?



Auna's part flat part straight comb.

Manny (sitting next to Chirpy, the little twirp) says "Could I really be this big and pretty and still be a girl?" I hope so!!

Chirpy is not supposed to be a bantam, just regular ol' EE girl! Thanks for reading!!
 
Manny (my black and white EE) has me worried she may be a he? Any opinions??

I have 5 Easter Eggers and they are all a bit different both size wise and comb wise. I have one that is half way between a bantam size and a full size. She is so petite compared to the rest but she lays a normal medium sized egg. She is also very slender and sleek where as a couple of the others have the wider body and bums. And she has always been smaller even as a chick. Maybe EE are like any other mutt in the world......the characteristics that they show are really going to vary from bird to bird.
 
What beautiful birds. I can't really tell, EEs just vary so much to tell. (Do they have similar tails?) What specific breed is Anna??

I’d say your black one looks more like a hen then the one it’s laying next to. To me that one looks more Rooster bc of head different color than body and it looks to have splotches and not repeated pattern. Idk
