    Is this a rooster?

    I don’t think it is, but she’s extremely loud in the morning i got 3Easter egger bantams, they are about 6months old now (didn’t start laying yet) i don’t want to rehome her but she goes on a full rant every morning, the other 2 Easter eggers are fine the mottled Cochin bantams don’t make a peep.
