A combless Rooster?

[JodyJo]

Has anyone heard of this...I have an EE pullet...that is crowing, is she copying the other 2, or is she a he...here's a pic of her at 9 weeks.

That's a rooster. You can tell by the darker, shiner feathering.

why so late with comb....its mates have full out combs already at 9 weeks....I sure hope not.....

here is another shot of "her"

EE's take longer to develop their combs because they have rose combs. Look at his neck feathers, they are pointy. A hen will have very round neck feathers. Sorry.

EEs actually usually have pea combs, but not always

i think your's might actually have a v-comb from what i can see, any way he's crossed with a polish or something? that would explain why his comb's so small.
