did i accidentally buy roosters??

That's not always true. I have had several hens grow spurs.



ETA: OP, none of your birds appear to have spurs, which is even curiouser, because if that red bird was a 2-year-old (or older) roo, he should have at least some spurs starting in...

true that you can not tell gender by spur bumps or spurs as some hens even get spurs

not true i have a game rooster with no spurs at all.

Yes, I looked that up after posting last night, but I didn't think it was relevant to add at the time.



I'm glad other people are seeing the signs of the red bird being a rooster. I was seriously beginning to doubt myself there.

My black bird, Pearl, finally laid her first egg. She is a great mommy. She sat on it for a while so i had to bribe her to get off with some weeds. The brown and white one is definitely a roo! After observing him more and more he is getting his groove on with all the hens now. Thank you all for your help!!
