I've been having terrible roo anxiety lately since I live in town and cannot have one. I've already determined my 12 week olds are all pullets and I found a home for my little bantam roo with little problem. If these are roos, I want to start looking for a home now.
The EE's have been so different personality wise than my RIRs and Buffs. They have been pretty obnoxious from day one, wanting out of the brooders and being really loud, but my gut still tells me pullets. I'd like some second opinions though from people who might know more about EEs. All my chicks have had bumps where leg spurs would be, even my 12 week old hens, so that hasn't helped and while Coral's comb is larger than Joey's, it just looks like a different type to me. It's orangish too, not pink at all.
I have two 3 week olds I'm having anxiety about too, lol, but I know I have to wait another week for those at least.
This is Coral....
and this is Joey (for Josephine, I hope!)
