How many roos? (6 wk Easter Eggers/Backyard mixes)

[RoostersAreAwesome]

Back with 7 week updates. 1/2 are still definitely boys, 3/5 are still definitely girls. I've tried to get closer photos of 4/6, though 4 is really skittish and hard to get a good photo of.

In some lighting 6's pea comb doesn't look very pink at all, but in others it does. It has no visible wattle growth, and especially compared to the two straight combed cockerels 1/2.

4 also doesn't appear to have any wattle growth but in some lighting its comb looks more pink, especially compared to the confirmed pullets 3/5. It appears to have a rose comb, though, and in my experience with wyandottes rose combs tend to pink up early, but not sure if that carries over to backyard mixes.

Do you still have 1 and 3? If so, do you have updated pictures of them?

They're my parents' chickens--I'll see if I can get updated photos (though I'll warn that my dad's idea of "good" photos isn't necessarily mine, lol)

Updated Photos of 1 and 3. 1 turned out to be a very nicely behaved rooster with lightly feathered legs (part cochin?) who has been allowed to stay.
2 was also a rooster, but not very nice, so he was rehomed. I don't have a photo, but he was solid blue.
3 turned out to be very striking. I assume she's a silver partidge, but maybe heterozygous on the partridge or with some extra melanizing genes since she's darker than most silver partridges (her eyes and skin are also black).

4 and one of 5 or 6 disappeared before reaching maturity. They still have either of 5 or 6, but she's pretty flighty and hard to get a photo of. She basically looks like this New Hampshire Red below or any black-tailed red breed, but with a pea comb.

All lay light brown eggs.

They’re beautiful, thanks for the pictures!
