    Boy or girl? Help!

    Our other bantam is polish, and early on she was the dominant one, but recently she seems to have taken a back seat and this one now seems to be dominant, is this because it’s a boy? Would that make sense

    New bantams

    Thank you both for all this info, I have just closed the door, the other 2 are both on their bar, I am just worried if she wanted to attack the new bird, she’d have no where to run and therefore get injured, but I have set my alarm for 5.30 so I can open their door as early as possible
