We have 5 chicks all born on the same day and we are almost sure that 2 of them are roos. They are getting their combs which are turning red and now today I noticed that they are getting red waddles. :(

We had hoped to keep them all but I am sure 2 roos with only 3 hens is a bit much for the poor girls.

The two suspected boys are already flogging each other... uggh

Suggestions please.

Thank you so much
 
You really don't have to unless they are attacking each other. If they are, you need to take one out
 
so far they seem to be getting along fine until I go down and clean their brooder... so of course that ruffles their feathers a bit and they chest bump a couple times then they are fine.
