I have a four 3 month old chicks and one I'm positive is a rooster and I thought the other 3 were hens until this morning when I saw and heard one of them crow. What do y'all think this chicken is?

Yeah, I think that is your rooster there. Ameraucana, Ameraucana mix (EE), and any pea comb variety for that matter, develop more slowly.

The redness in the comb and the more blocky pattern, with I think appear to be the signs of a saddle, indicate this is your roo.

Did you see who crowed? Is this that bird?

Also post pics of your others.

Yes, that is the chick that I saw crow. Here are my babies!
The first is Sunny who I'm sure is a hen
The second is Stinker who I also think is a hen
The third is Hoot who I am sure is also a roo
And the last is most of them together

Of the new batch, 1st and 2nd are hens.

3rd is a rooster too.

And yes, the one that crowed is a rooster. You'll have another one crowing soon too.

50/50 males to females. Pretty much straight forward statistics.
