Male vs female olive egger?

[Mandy82926]

I'm thinking this is a rooster. No sounds yet but has rooster characteristics and the cone is not showing much and its the bigger of the birds? Can anyone tell by the feather pics here? Supposedly 10 weeks old.

Pretty! That's a hard one because of the mix breed but I'm leaning toward pullet.

Lots of silver on this guy. I vote cockerel.

Will a cockerel have silver? Hardly has any cone either? Looks so much bigger than the others too bigger legs. Maybe just older. But my younger ones have some cones. I thought the feathers may be more pointy than round. He stands upright more. Kinda bows up at others some. Zooms around more too

Here’s a cockerel I had in 2020.. he’s 12 weeks old in this photo.
He matured into an excellent flock master.

The comb leads me to believe male. Pea combs are quite small, especially in pullets. The fact that there is color in this one's rather fat/wide comb says male to me. My handful of pullets with pea combs didn't show any color till about 13 weeks or so.

I think this one is a bit younger than 10 weeks, more like 6-8 IMO as there is a lot of fuzz on the tips of the feathers around the head. For comparison, here are some of my EE boys at 8 weeks

I'm now seeing mines comb look like yours two here and yours are males right? It's different than the females

Pea comb become pink very early in males. It also has kind of 3 lobes in males, while in females it's one lobe, yellow, and almost invisible.
