All roosters?

[KFuqua]

My husband got these chcickens when they were 7 weeks. They are now around 20 weeks and i have been telling him they are all roosters. He doesn't believe it because they don't crow, but they also don't lay eggs. Also what are they? The people he got them from said they are Dominique but i think they are barred rock. Thanks for any help!

They are Barred Plymouth Rock cockerels.

All roos. I get dominique and barred rock mixed up, so I'll let someone else answer that. How old were they when you got them? Barred rock are pretty easy to sex at a young age and I think dominique are too. Just wondering if they knew they were dumping 4 males on you.

Thanks! I've been telling him this for weeks. Now maybe he will believe me!

They didn't. He got them from a little girl who got an incubator as a gift and these were the first egss she hatched.

Dominique have a rose comb, so these are barred rocks, as others have said, and cockerels

He should.
They are OBVIOUSLY male.
And barred rock, because they have single combs.

We are still somewhat new to this chicken thing! He is just clueless because he works out of town and i take care of the animals.
