Out of my flock of 14 EEs, I am certain without a doubt that 4 are roos. Two have even crowed. The other two have flaming red combs and wattles. However, there is two chicks that have me stumped. Kickin' Wing has a pink comb, but no wattles. The comb is kind of dubbed a little (or smushed looking). She has a very calm demeanor but will fight or establish pecking order. Next is Feo, who has a more developed comb, but is pale yellow and has no wattles. Feo has been on the recieving end of a little bullying by the head roos. Well, anyway, what do you think? Both roos too? Sorry that the flash is kind of messing up Kickin' Wings comb color, she just wants to be in my face.

I wouldn't say that Feo definitly is, the comb shows no red in the pictures

Red or not, I'll eat my shoe if it's not a boy. He is starting to show the reddish color smut in the wing area - only boys get that. Also his comb is wide and prominently showing the 3 rows on the pea comb, which girls do not get theirs that early.

And EE's don't get wattles.
