Hi everyone, I tend to lurk and read more than anything on here. Lots of information!
I have a question....these 2 roosters. What kind of combs are these? I tried to get a good picture of their heads. Hope they are good enough. The top one did have a small muff and beard, but not much and hens keep picking at it. I bought these as chicks from a breeder. Are either one of them keepers for breeding purposes? Or do they need to go?

I think the technical name for that comb is called "crazy comb". lol! Crack myself up... sorry.
I would not use either of them for breeding. They are definitely not carrying two copies of the pea comb gene.
And ameraucanas are not supposed to have wattles.

I was thinking crazy comb too lol... I was really disappointed. Having trouble getting nice roosters. Most people want hens and get roosters, I get hens and no roosters. Then I get roosters that look like they are on crack.
