Nobody knows which of these is a rooster for sure.

Can anyone here tell which of these EE chicks is a rooster? I've asked several people and everyone says, "it's too soon to tell." They're coming up on being 11 weeks old. I'm fairly certain that one of them is a rooster, but there are two-three others I am not sure about. See pics, I circled the rooster, his name is Teddy I included another pic of just him as well.
Thanks for any input!

has the one you thought to be a rooster started his baby crows?

I know a couple of signs a rooster shows around this age. If you would like to know.

Based on posture of the last one I would say hen.

I haven't heard any crowing, but I haven't been near enough during crowing hours. My sister said she heard one of them when she stayed over and I was keeping them in the house. They were around 5 weeks old at the time.

In my experience there is no such thing as crowing hours.

I realized I don't have any good straight on shots of his mane. I mean, he could be a she, but of all the chicks, that's the only one with a long mane, and he acts like he's the top dog of the group. He is also the most alert, and very rotund.

But does he like to walk up to you like a crab?

Lol well I'm a beginner. All I can say is I haven't heard it, but my sister did.
