Hi, I started off with 4 chicks, I was told they were all hens. That wasn’t the case, I just gave two roosters away after they started to crow. I have two left, a super blue egg layer and a silkie. I’m afraid the super blue is a Roo too but it hasn’t started to crow. I’m so new to this I’m not sure I could tell by markings. They are about 5-6 months old. It walks around proud all day, is very aggressive to the other hen and she always sticks her tail feathers very high. I can’t find much information on this type of chicken. Can anyone tell by these pics? She seems Like he comb and waddle area are turning more red.
I’ll be super disappointed if 3 out if 4 are Roos. :(.
Sorry, not great pictures
Thanks for the help.

Not necessarily, cream legbars,Ameraucanas and Araucanas also lay blue eggs!
I was referencing that My Pet Chicken sells a “super blue egg layer” that is an Ameraucana crossed with a white layer.

While this bird isn’t nexessarily from MPC, I’m sure it’s a pure blue egg bird crossed with a More prolific white layer to be called a “super” blue layer.
