    No.. her body type, feathers r jst like all my other pullets. Its her comb tht concerns me- def doesn't look like Adrian, but is a bit larger than the othrs. However, I have a Maran roo tht acts & has a similar body shape 2 Adrian. Darcy acts like the pullets. Keeping fingers crossed!!

    Need help sexing my chicks!!!

    I think ur right abt her being a white/cream EE... she has green feet, and no comb- pretty much the same as my othr EE's. I didn't even know they came in this color- there's not another color in her.

    I noticed at the end of your comment u ment tht u thot the 1st EE was a roo b/c of red.. its got some specked brown, but no red. However, is red an indicator of male in EE's? I added some more pics jst a few.. plse take a look b/c if so- then I think Ive def got more roos than I realized!
