Quick question...my girls are all the same age. Is it unusual for one to develop more quickly? They all seem to be developing at different rates. (I.e. theyare all 4 at different stages of reddening and waddle development.)

Oh good! Thank you! I figured it was probably the case, but my husband keeps saying she's a roo, look how red she is! Lol! We have 4 different shades in 4 different hens!Yes, perfectly normal. Egg laying is prompted by hormones and they can all be different even if they're the same breed.
You can post pics of their combs with ages and have folks take a guess to be sure. Have you tried tgat?Oh good! Thank you! I figured it was probably the case, but my husband keeps saying she's a roo, look how red she is! Lol! We have 4 different shades in 4 different hens!

Ahh, well good then!Everyone has pretty much said pullet, but I got nervous! Lol! Thanks!
They are all only 14 weeks! But, she's always been a bit ahead. Her comb is the same size as the others, hen like, just redder.If shes close to laying then she'll begin to become more red than ones that still have a while.
Hmm, heres mine at 14 weeks. And it was a super hot day also. Mine are darker but not too red yet.They are all only 14 weeks! But, she's always been a bit ahead. Her comb is the same size as the others, hen like, just redder.

mine are Ausralorps, so they all get red. I think by 14 weeks if she were a roo, her comb would be bigger. They are all the same comb size. She is just the most red. Lol!Hmm, heres mine at 14 weeks. And it was a super hot day also. Mine are darker but not too red yet.
