Blue Laced Red Wyandottes - Pullets or Roos???

[berriesncream]

Booo! So #4 has wrong type of comb AND is a boy? Because of the size of the comb by this point? I'm so dissappointed. I thought I'd at least get 2 pullets.

I think number 6 is your only roo. I have SLW's and I am no expert, heck I'm not even on the waiting list. But the one of mine that I am convinced is a roo, His comb looks similar but is a darker red than number 6. My pullets all have a orange comb with a tinge of pink except for one who is more pink, but doesn't have the wattles of my roo Robot.

I guess you'll have to come back in a few weeks and tell us who was right and who was wrong.

Looks like you got a lot of roos but I think that 1 and 5 are pullets...esp 5

Okay, now that these guys are 11 weeks old, I thought I'd post some more pics. I think I have 4 boys and 2 girls. What do you think?


Pretty sure this one's a girl:

And here one of several boys and one that I think is a girl. She's the one with the wrong kind of comb that many people thought was a roo, but we're thinking she's looking like a pullet:

And another of her alone:

Waddles are just so much smaller and lighter colored than the (obvious) boys.

Looking forward to hearing your opinions!
