Hi! I hatched out eggs from my flock in April. I have a Rhode Island red rooster and some leg horn hens. Based on my research, they would be Isa Browns. I know you can sex Isa Browns by their colors. Light brown/red would be females and yellow chicks would be Roos. I know they lose their yellow down and it turns to white feathers. Well every single egg I hatched out was a yellow chick, so based on that they all would be roosters. But I have some that do not have large combs and wattles! I am so confused now. Can anyone please help?!
I’ve attached a pic of one without a comb/wattle and a pic of one CDD58293-CD93-4C46-AF21-2FF220241CB5.jpeg with.

That's a pullet, & more of an AmberLink coloration.
