Comb size difference on same hatch - all pullets

[Georgia460]

Thanks featheredplanets for your encouraging word. Am beating myself up tonight about what a stupid move I made. Am recently (& suddenly) widowed and trying to move forward in my life and do something for me. I thought how nice it would be to have chickens again since they're so therapeutic (not to mention fresh eggs) but that didn't turn out quite the way I wanted - LOL! Just sad that people can be so unethical. Thanks again for your post/reply.

Sorry for your loss!
Your chickens are pretty things though, and the eggs look nice, can you keep them? You can always get more, that’s the best part about having chickens!

So sorry for your loss. My advise would be to make lemonade. You have the lemons "no pun intended". Pick the ones that best resemble Isbars and locate a good rooster and breed your own.

Thanks to all of you for your compassion, and for your wise, sound advice.
Gray Farms -Not sure I want a rooster, don't know enough about the breed to be a breeder. Only have 3 single comb girls in there and not certain who, if any, would be the best. The other 4 I'm not sure what they are and would probably have to sell them - or give them away - as a mixed breed. I noticed they all have blue earlobes, some more prominent than others. Until I can make a decision based on good old-fashioned common sense Ill take your advice blackandtan and just enjoy them and the eggs!
Wishing everyone a peaceful and joyous Holiday.
Merry Christmas!
