At what age should we be seeing the V-comb in the cockerels, and how much? When is it sure to be fully developed? @ConnieA maybe you know this one?
Depending on how large the comb is, you may see a hint of comb as early as two months in hens and roos. Some roos have larger combs than others. I know some breeders are selecting for smaller combs and wattles.
BTW, behavior can be a really good predictor of sex in Crevecoeurs. Boys tend to rush up to another chick and get tall, on tiptoes, even. If the chick he rushed to was a boy, there will be at least a brief response of going on tiptoes to meet the challenge. If a girl, she will respond with a stare, or by ignoring the boy and walking away.
