Golden Wyandotte rooster combs

[vawolfmom]

I have some young (5mo old) roosters. I will be culling soon. I have noticed that some have combs that are tall and flop over, some have what I think of as the rose comb (kinda flat and rose looking) and a few have extra long "hairs" starting to grow out of their heads. Which should be culled first?

What is the intent of your flock? If breeding to standard, the single combs should go first. If just breeding for egg production, cull based on personality. Can you post pictures of the long 'hairs'?
