rir roo or pullet? also, am i an ameracuna? pics

[curdog32]

I have a RIR that i am not sure what gender. I have two pics, the first one is the one i,m not sure of and the second pic is of a roo for sure. the comb on the one in question is small and the other is much larger, just like the other three roos with them. could someone tell me what they think? also, in the third pic i was wondering if she is ameracuna? thank you in advance for your insight.

The top looks like a pullet to me, looks like my RIR pullets anyway..
The second looks roo and the last looks like a Golden Comet...

Pretty sure they are a RIR cross.....Did you get them from a hatchery?

Pretty birds. I want a Golden Comet, I like the mix better than plain red, lol!

we got the 4 rir's and the possible golden comets from tractor supply. my wife thinks the chick in the first pic is a roo and i think it's a pullet. are golden comets good egg layers? or do they even sell that breed at tsc?

Yep, golden comets are very good egg layers.

thanks for the welcome Bluegrass! So far I have been reading posts and it seems pretty friendly around here.

They are great egg layers! Probably they do sell them...guess it depends on where TSC gets their birds. Lots of hatcheries sell the hybrids because they are good layers and are sex-linked.

I dont have a pic of my RIRs but they are about the same age and mine are all pullets and they look like that. I dont have any that have a comb like the one in the 2nd pic......
