    Hello friends! I have two 6-week old SS and I know it’s early, but if anyone has a screaming answer for me I’m dying to know if my SS “Rosemary” is actually a “Roger.” Her comb is much bigger and more pink than her sister. However, I have read that this breed typically has large red combs in...
