Somebody on a thread mentioned climate as a red comb excuse...don't laugh at me if that's ridiculous...
There were some REALLY obvious boys in the same brood, so this one was off my radar for a while. Saddle feathers look to be coming in white though...

I was convinced my LB, Bindi, was a boy when she was a teenager and was pretty worried there for a while (pinker comb early on, ginormous etc) but she just matured quickly and was the first in her class to lay an egg. I have a Dark Brahma now whose voice changed (the deepest cluck I've heard) at 8 weeks and pinked up in the face too. I know she is a girl because of her coloring and I am sure she will lay way earlier than the same aged Faverolles who has just started che-lucking (you know that cheep/cluck they get when their voice starts to change...) at 12 weeks.
