I know Easter Eggers are supposedly hard to ID but thought I’d get your opinions at 10 weeks. Based only on combs I’d say A and B are pullets and C and D are cockerels. Thoughts?

Commenting on my own post, I’m noticing things in the photos I haven in person. Seems like there are pointy hackles and some saddle feathers on C and D unless I’m imagining it.
 
C, & D are cockerels.

Easter Eggers are actually pretty easy to sex.
Agreed.

You likely are!
Sometimes those saddles just seem to appear. Lol

A little trick, go to the mid back of the bird and look under the established feathers, you should see some little saddles! :D
