So I'm guessing both roosters?

Somebody dumped baby chicks at the pet store as snake food. My daughter had to rescue a couple. Don't know for sure, but they couldn't have been more than a few days old. This was end of march, begin of febuary so they would be between 4 to 5 months old now. We thought we had a boy and a girl due to the obvious personality differences. The one that was smaller and more timid has turned out to be quite agressive and has grown more than the other one. He has been crowing for weeks now, but he hasn't gotten the long tail feathers yet.
The one that we originally thought was the boy is now the smaller and more timid of the pair. It also likes to stay in the coop more but will dig out shallow depressions in the dirt and lay in the hole. It has long tail feathers and also red wattles and comb but they are smaller than on the obvious rooster, and no crowing.

RIR boys to be exact. I had one of those. He turned out to be an awfully aggressive animal.

Good luck.

x2 ...and I also had 1 very aggressive...but also one RIR that avoided me.

If they're beingmale doesn't automatically sign their death warrants, wait a bit to see if they are aggressive. My RIR roo is a gentleman, huge and gorgeous, with mahogany body and green tail.

Thanks everyone. I guess the big one has got to go. He is attacking everyone but me, and now my daughter is afraid of him. Wonder if I can trade him for a hen?

If he's attacking people, don't trade him. He should become an ex-rooster. Roosters are dangerous. They can easily cut you to the bone, and they are especially dangerous around children because kids' faces are closer to the ground. My big RIR roo's spurs are easily 3" long. Get rid of the aggressive bird right away. Here are my personal rules for roosters. Do with them what you will. You have to be alpha bird in your flock.

Here are the Redwicket Rules for Roosters
1. You shall look pretty. If you don't look pretty, you go to the stew pot.
2. You shall be nice to hens. Rough up the hens, you go to the stew pot.
3. You shall not breed hens in front of me. If you try to breed a hen while I'm around, I will kick you. Hard. Those are MY hens, buster.
4. You belong to me. Therefore, I will pick you up off the roost any time I feel like it. I will carry you upside down, I will tickle your toes, I will look at your feathers, I will call you "Itsy Bitsy Cutie Wooty Widdly Rooster Baby."
5. You shall not take one single offensive action towards any human. The first offensive action, no matter how small (like looking at me mean with feathers puffed up) will result in you immediately being chased around the pasture as fast as I can go while I scream and squawk and try to hit you with whatever I'm carrying. After this, you will be punished by being picked up and carried around all the time. See #4.
6. The second offensive action taken toward any human, no matter how small, and you go into the stew pot. There are no third chances.
