18 week old Anconas...is one of these a rooster?

Mine are from welp hatchery. I was actually supposed to get 10 assorted white egglayer pullets, but they don't garutee a breed minimum, so I couldn't do much about it. I had 1 turn out to be a roo and kept 3 pullets and the roo.

I didn't realize the combs on the hens would get so big! I should have looked at more than just the picture in the Meyer catalog. I live in CT so I guess I will have to pay attention to the frostbite situation . I have never had an issue, but the biggest combs I have are on my RIR hens.

Their coop is in a stone building and the temp seems to run about 15 degrees more than the outside temps. No drafts, so that's good! Last winter the lowest temp in the coop I saw was was 15 degrees. Should I worry about frostbite?

Luckily Wheezy and Florence are quite friendly and would allow me to treat them if need be. Wheezy is definitely a dominant bird...here she is being the boss of the dog when she was just a few weeks old.
