Yep I agree with that comb. Cockerel. I had a picker with the bantams and moved him in with the LF Cochin I was brooding (same age) He is still with them and a very gentle boy. He is my avatar pic.

Good luck they look very nice.

Awesome! I'll bet it's a double yoke. I think all of my hens have laid one double yoke egg when they first started.
