Hi everyone,
I believe two of my chicks are Austrawhites, but I am not completely sure. They were born just a day apart and one has developed a much larger comb. They will be 6 weeks in just a few days. Very recently the chicken with the thicker comb has become more aggressive and spastic. The chicken with the thicker comb also antagonizes and terrorizes the two other chickens but more frequently the other assumed Austrawhite. The chick with the thicker comb likes to try and jump on the other chickens and is more skittish than the others. This is my first time raising chickens so I am brand new to the subject and would love some help!

The one with the big comb look male to me.

The other two might be female, or they might be males that are developing more slowly (just like people, some chickens grow up faster than others.)
