I had 2 chicks hatch yesterday. Is this the cream color talked about for roosters? I have white Americauna,gold laced Wyandotte, barred rock black and white and rhode island reds. I have 3 roosters,yes I know that’s a lot. Mr.Hei Hei is the oldest,biggest and in charge and was somewhat of a rescue when I had no roosters. Mr.Fondo is a gold laced from a hatchery that was supposed to be a hen and & Mr.Mini Man showed up. Pictures included of all.
Side note from going out to take photos- Mr Fondo has put himself on the cull list. I caught him in the nesting box eating eggs. WHAT THE HECK IS UP WITH THAT!!!’

I'm not sure what you mean by the gold cream coloring for roosters. You have a flock of different breeds, so the chicks will vary in color depending on the parents involved.

An egg eating rooster? That is unusual. You could try putting fake eggs in the nests to see if that helps, or housing him separately.
