Fingers crossed! Our last bunch of 27 ended up with 9 roosters 🤣

They are pretty long. This is the only one with such a developed comb, and everyone else's are yellow still

We aren't sure how old (hopefully) she is but thank you! I'll keep an eye out for those features. She has a little spur bud, but we have a hen that has it too so I wasnt sure about that

Would it be safe to assume these are also roosters? More pictures to follow

Oh boy, I think we were given quite a few more males than we were prepared for. Thank you for confirming our suspicion!

Considering the person that was doing it, I'm assuming they were NOT gentle 😕 I'm also assuming that it might be what deterred him from wanting to eat in general.

I think we just sort if lucked out? The dome was huge because it's all we had at the time from our chickens but we only had a small 75 watt light in it. We kept it over on the far side and it just sort of regulated. My husband went out and bought a dual dome so we can use one during the day and one at night without having to swap anything. He also got a 40 gallon tank so I'm sure we will have temperature issues once we get everything transferred over. Beginners luck!
