New to chickens and need help

[GJPA1996]

We have three chicks, they are almost 8 weeks old. This week I noticed one of our chicks, "Bacon", has developed a three rows of combs opposed to the single row Bacon's sisters have. We were told "she" was an Ameraucana. I'm concerned that Bacon might be a rooster. I'd love to hear what someone with more experience thinks. Thanks!!!

Greetings from Kansas, GJPA1996, and

! Happy you joined our flock! I am leaning toward roo as well.

Thanks everybody. I guess we'll wait a little longer to make sure he crows and then we'll have to find him a new home, and my son a new chicken.

Welcome to BYC - I agree with the others - 'Bacon' is a cockerel.
