Proof positive--when I went outside this morning I heard cheerful crowing coming from the youngsters' coop.

Thanks, guess I'll keep an ear out for some adolescent crowing soon...

Hi all. Thanks for earlier input. I've got some pics of my little EE Pip at 8 weeks now. So far there's been one vote for pullet and one for cockerel. Tried to get pics of back, tail, neck and comb. That has me confused--I've read that pea combs on a male will have two or three distinct rows of...
