how do you mix up chickens that bad? Not only is it the wrong sex. It's the wrong breed.This looks like a red star rooster to me
then how come if both are red sex link roosters the white one is smaller but 3 weeks older?The white bird is a red sex link rooster.
the others don't have combs and they all have green legs. When do they get combs? They're 4 mos old.That is a red sexlink cockerel. Easter Eggers usually have pea combs, greenish legs, and no wattles.
These birds are Easter Eggers. They have pea combs. The one on the right in the coop looks like it might be a cockerel.
well than that's three wrong. I am getting a refund and dumping them off at Farm & Home for them to deal with. They can resell them to whoever. I paid for 6 females chicks, since I live in town and we cannot have roosters. I told them this. That is why I asked for all females. They said if they have a mark on them they are males. None had a mark of any sort on them anywhere. And I bought 5 Easter eggers and only got 4. Andthe red sexlink I got to lay more eggs isn't going to be laying any eggs since he's a rooster. If they get the sex wrong half the time and the breed 1/6 the time they really shouldn't sell chicks. I wonder how many others who live in town bought females and ended up with males. Roosters can't lay and no one wants them to crow.They have combs, they just don't have the classic single comb. There are different types of combs.

The white bird you have is a red sexlink male.
