Spur Buds?

[FluffyChic]

Are all chickens born with them? I know they don't actually develop the spurs until 6-8months. But I'm looking at all 10 of my 5 week old chicks and most have the little bump or bud. Does this mean they all are roos? Thanks!

They all have them. Some hens even do develop spurs.

phew!!! I was starting to get nervous that all 10 of my chicks were roos!!!!! I think a lot of them are, but I'd like to at least have a couple pullets.
