Hmmm... a few of them do that. Namely the white one and him, and sometimes Edna, the dark brown and yellowish one, does that to everyone. She also jumps on the others and kicks sometimes.
That's what I'm here for! I've been reading so much but none of it is giving me a clear idea of what I'm looking at in person.
Okay thanks. Fyi Teddy was the first chick to roost, his feathers are the longest, his feet are large, and he has made some sounds that were rather loud. But I haven't heard a crow. Our coop is far away from the house, so I never hear the morning crows. But my sister said it woke her up when she stayed here, her room was above the chick room. So somebody is a rooster.
Just so you know. Their first crow doesn't sound like a crow. It sounds like a raspy loud chirp it takes a while to mature into a full crow.
Edna doesn't try to get on the other chicks, she just kicks at them. She doesn't do it very often, it looks more like a pissy thing than a mating thing. She is also smaller than Teddy, Red, and Pocahontas. Teddy and Red are the two who seem most likely to be roos, they are the two biggest. But Red's feathers aren't the same as Teddy's either...
Okay, I have heard that from Teddy and Red! I also have 7 week old chicks, two olive eggers and two wyandottes. One of the olive eggers makes a sound like that occasionally as well.
