I heard one singing the egg song this morning so I had to go check. Saw Lil' Dude doing this "thang" the other day so I thought we must be close. I'm wanting to get some golds next year.
My roo boy had a comb before the 1st week was out, lol It was bright red from the start.
As kickinchicken said, my pullets don't have much anything. It's more or less just a little ridge that runs down the top of their heads. Not much red to it at all. I've got a cochin too. Hers is rather...

I haven't tried that on these little ones. With my standards I stood in front of the brooder with a stock pot and an egg. Told them they had a choice.
Sebrights aren't big enough to be worth plucking. Might have to show them a picture of the 5ft black snake to motivate them
I've got 3 Sebright pullets and 1 bantam cochin pullet that I picked up Easter weekend.(working on week 23) When do these little buggers start laying??!! I saw Lil' Dude doing his roosterly duties earlier today so I know they've got to be ready.
