It definitely has a girls tail. These pea combs really throw me for a loop. I would hold onto that one myself until I was more sure.

[A roo or two]

Your black and white ended up being a roo also? I would have guessed pullet by the even pattern of color. Roos are generally more splotched in appearance. :/ well that just stinks.

Yes the black and white was a roo. Yep the regular pattern had me hoping.

I've got another bird to add to the mix! She is 2-3 months old. I've already got two too many roos, don't need another one.

I know there are a lot of photos, but more = better, right?

:sigh: Oh well. I'll figure something out. I have four separate enclosures I can put the chickens in, so it'll work. :/

Get some other opinions on this.....I'm not an expert by any means..... But if you have room...I'd hang on to that one unless you are in the business of breeding.. If you are, please get another opinion on whether to keep it or not... I love him/her.!!
