    Does anyone have a pic of their RIR pullet(s) at 6-8 weeks? I'd like to see how their combs progress. Mine are almost 6 weeks and their combs are still teeny and pale. The roo's is much bigger and redder. How long do they stay small for?

    I was interested in girl pics, actually. Just curious to know when they start getting bigger and when they turn red. I have a boy and his is growing a lot. My girls' combs are still pale and tiny.
