One Rooster...TWO Roosters?!

Vids need to be uploaded to youtube, or similar platform, then linked here.
But if it crows it's a male.
At 13 weeks the hackle and saddle feathers might just be starting to grow in,
could take few more weeks to see them easily.

I posted the video!! I've never done that before. I jumped on my computer instead of my phone which was very easy. Thank you again!!

They're all so beautiful!!
I especially like the grey birds.

The grey ones are the ones we were told that are Blue Plymouth Rocks...is that true?

More-or-less true, yes.

They're probably somthing like this:

A hybrid rather than a pure Plymouth Rock, but definitely a blue bird and a good layer. Quite a few hatcheries are selling them under lots of different names: Blue Plymouth Rock, Blue Sexlink, Blue Sapphire, Sapphire Gem, Production Blue, and so forth. Just to make things confusing, some of those same names get used for blue hens from crosses of other breeds, too

Carmella is male, the feather sheen and large feet are decent tells even without the crow.
Now whether or not you keep two males is totally up to your birds and your patience level my freind.

Carmella, errr, Carmen now!! Thanks so much to Chickassan and the rest of the posters! Not sure what our next step will be....

That's so interesting!!! Like many of our experiences since we got them in April. It's been a great journey with these chickens. Such joy.
