Sorry about the group - they are in the garden today and I didn't want to trample the plants to catch them. The birds I'm wondering about are the black ones. They are black Bresse 3 weeks old. I will try for better individual pics tonight

Sorry! It's had to sex them off that photo, try for clear comb pics tomorrow!

I would agree with you, the three suspects are probably Roos.

No, that's not a crow. Just a very LOUD chirp!

Okay that was very very weird lol. Thanks for clearing it up

I took a few more pictures of my questionable Easter egger sans the red light (thanks for the heads up). Although after reading a bunch of this thread, I'm pretty sure it's a cockrel.

Sorry about the quality, I couldn't get "him" to come any closer.

No red shoulders and only one row to the comb. That is a hen. EE rooster have three rows to their comb. I have two. I thought all six of my EE chicks were roos last year. Lol The comb is the best indicator.

Thanks. I'm going to wait a while longer and keep an eye out. I'm still not convinced it's a roo, it's comb is pinker than the rest but nowhere near as pink as the many of the other posters.

Sounds like a crow to me. There is a girl on here that posted a video of a 4 day old Hona chick making that same noise. He had it perfected to a crow by 4 weeks old.
