    Hen or Roo

    I purchased two barred rocks and one Easter Egger that are about 8 1/2 weeks old now. I am afraid the Easter Egger Vera May be Vern. The other morning she let out 3 loud sounds like almost a crow but not quite. She is really big but sooo sweet. I am attaching pics. Any thoughts?
