I just want reassurance that Knuckles is indeed a Pullet? She has so many “rooster” mannerisms. The obvi cockerel, Larry, is headed to a new home this weekend (not allowed to have roosters).

Is she currently 12 weeks? Would love to see a photo update of her as a hen!

She's about 10months now. She is truly a fun lady, very curious, the only one who insists on coming in the coop when I'm doing my daily clean up to supervise me. She was definitely the fastest to mature from that group of chicks I added last spring. Super big legs so for a minute I wondered about her being a cockerel too. I could hear her coming down the coop hall, thud, thud, thud. lol.

Here’s our BCM @ 25 weeks old.. not laying yet. I gave a BCM chick to a few of my neighbors from the same batch, and all of them are laying. I’ve been searching high and low for her egg haha!! Our hatchery version Cream Legbar has been laying for a few weeks now

Her first egg is here! Way better than I was expecting.
