EE pullet is a ROO- Should I try to keep him? UPDATED W/PICS

[Chickadee28]

Thanks for your replies, I figured he was a roo, his comb is so much darker than all of the other chicks, the crowing is also getting more distinct. I am sad that one of the EE's turned out to be male, I was looking forward to the blue/green eggs. I think I am going to hang on to him for awhile and see how it goes.

Find out what the regulations are inyour area and if it says that you can have a roo then I would keep him. This way he can fertilize all the hens eggs and you can hatch your own EE's in the future (if you wanted to).

If your neighbors think you need a roo for the eggs.......keep him.
