Is it 100% guaranteed that a five week old chick with a red comb is definitely a male? Or is it possible that it can still grow into a hen?? I have three red combed easter Eggers. Their combs are not perfect so not a perfect three row pea comb so I’m hoping that they can still be girls. I’m having a hard time getting rid of the roosters I already have so this would be a bummer.
 
They are probably cockerels, but some hens do get red combs early. Could you post pics? That will give us a better idea.
