Is she a he?

Penny is a cockerel :/

I had a buff orp chick named Penny as well. She and her hatch mate, Arnold, were taken by raccoons though. I still miss those two. But anyways, Penny seems to be a popular name for buff orps.

Seems to me he is an Orpington Rooster.

Ok guys, are you certain about Eileen? She stood up and gave a funny half crow this morning and did a little side dance at my main lady while flapping her wings... Can hens pretend to be a rooster when there Isisnt one?
- sad in Napa

Her behavior is dominance related. There is no way that Eileen is male.

I got him this past August but when I got him he was already with his feathers so I guess he was 2 months before I got him
