I bought a bunch of chicks from the feed store who are about 4 weeks old now and they told me they were ameracaunas and I am not sure if they are boys or girls. They have slight yellow combs (a little bigger than I am accustomed to with my other breeds) and long tail feathers. They told me they were all hens but I am just concerned as they are all so beautiful already and I relate that to roos not hens. Also the RIR's hens they sold me have suspiciously big combs for their age and long tail feathers so I am hoping that they are not roos also as they told me that they were hens also. Can anybody enlighten me on this as I have never had purebred ameracaunas before and am unsure how to distinguish the early sign of roos.
Thanks.
Thanks.
