    Chick has a protruding vent and pasty butt? Help! *PICS*

    Hen? Or Rooster? Cuckoo Marans

    Not positive. Probably around 18 weeks. Someone gave him/her to me because they were in a bind. She was small when I got her (him), but I don’t know how old.

    Hen? Or Rooster? Cuckoo Marans

    Is this a cockerel? Or a pullet? I don’t have the opposite gender to compare. From what I’ve read, this is a lady. However, he/she is showing rooster behavior. He/she is the most recently introduced bird to the flock. Also, no chocolate eggs yet. Thanks for your help!
