    sorry this took so long. Here is amber: His comb is still very red and he has darker red feathers on his wings and saddle. So I'm sure he is male(I think). The other two roosters we will probably butcher once they get older. They are not aggressive yet, but I can tell that they are going to be...

    Very true, we have caught and killed many possums after attacks, or whenever we see them to prevent attacks. They come more for the eggs, but will most definitely kill an easy chicken. At this stage the chicks are still learning, and they sleep on top of our brooder rather than in the coop...

    How Do You Think She Will Turn Out?

    So pretty! we had a chick like that once. I think she will most likely turn out a little darker than her wing colors (but still pretty light and that golden color) with speckles or lacing.
