I am no longer allowed to get silkie chicks bc they are too hard to sex until its too late. I'd say you def have 2 roos

If roosters are brought up together then they wont fight much at all. Just the occasional little squabble.

Yup they were brought up together (they still fight sometimes) but they are good friends

thanks! I hope somehow Sunny is actually a pullet hahaha

poor hawk must be all alone, at least she's got two strong boys to protect her

Hawk is a pullet, Sunny looks to be a roo.

haha thanks everyone, Sunny hasn't crowed yet she must be a late bloomer. But I hope *somehow* she's a pullet

even if she is a Roo, i plan on keeping both Roosters

To Donna - I bought 7 chicks at the feed store and got 5 roos and 2 pullets also! I love them all but now what to do with all those roos

In regard to the red comb on the rooster, how red is too red? My roo's comb is what I would call burgandy red, not bright red. It definitely doesn't look black. I can't post a picture yet
