7 roo's?

I see 10 roos and 10 pullets...basically the ones with the bid red combs are your going to be your roosters. Its much easier to tell in a big group like that. You can also see that the pullets have slightly longer tails right now.

 

[Chris09]

I believe the roosters are,
- 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 19

I thought i saw 11 roosters but i could be wrong.

 

[LindsayB]

yeah there was one that looked alittle iffy to me, so maybe there is 11

1,2,5,10,11,12,13,15,20 = 9 roos

16,18 not sure

3,4,6,7,8,9,14,17,19 =9 pullets

 

[Happy Chooks]

I think 1,2,5,9,10,11,12,13,15,16,18,20 are roosters.
