Okay, Minniechickmama...I finally got a chance to look back through my pictures. This is the only other picture I have of #8 right now. I cropped it so you can see her/his comb a little better. If you need a better shot, I'll see what I can get tonight or tomorrow.

Let me know what you think.

As of right now (14 weeks old today), only #5 and #6 crow.

One more question...from the sounds (and looks) of it, I have a total of 5 roosters and 7 hens (3 of the hens are ones I got last year). How many roosters is too many? I have heard that you don't want more than 2 because of fighting, but these guys don't seem to mind each other. There is the occassional squabble, but it's usually only when they are fight are outside of the coop and start posturing to show who's boss.

Is 5 roos too many for a total flock of 12?
