Mottled Cochin bantam roo??

[BookWormDenise]

This chick is right at 4 weeks old — purchased from mypetchicken/Meyer as mottled Cochin bantam, straight run. I’m thinking his comb just turned pink?? I’m a first time chicken owner so the suspense is killing me as I’m wondering how many roosters I’m going to end up with!! Is it too early to tell? Thank you!

You are right. That is a cockerel.

Ok, thank you!! I’ve seen him run up to other chicks and chest bump them. I wonder if the ones he does that with are also roosters???

Chicks do a lot of playing and sparring, not necessarily with other would be roo chicks though. Cute chicks you have!
