3mo Pullet crowing solutions?

100% male, no doubt

I’ve owned roosters before. Their crows sound very different. Also my black Sex Link has been copying her crows from time to time and they sound the same.

Believe what you want, looks like no one is going to change your mind. Would love to see an update when "she" starts laying.

Dark red feathers on the wings, big red comb and sickle feathers coming in on the hackles and saddle area all indicate that the bird is a cockerel.

Here is my female black sex link and barred rock for comparison

He has male-specific feathering. Even if he wasn't crowing nonstop, people will tell you he's a cockerel just by looking at him but if you're insistent he's a pullet, then you can keep him and see if he'll lay an egg.

Either way, the crowing won't stop even if you try to change pecking order or add other rooster. Adding a rooster may even increase the crowing. You could try a no-crow collar. I personally wouldn't but know people do it.

Another option is rehoming but please don't tell the person you give him to that he's a pullet unless you can confirm you're theory by actually seeing him lay an egg.

If all of these are 3 months old. They all look like cockerels to me.

Glad someone said it....

Alright. I will look into rehoming them as cockerels.

They are all very cute. Often times when cockerels first start crowing they sounds ridiculous. I personally love the first crows because they put so much effort into it and sound so funny. Takes about 2 to 3 weeks before they start to sound like your classic rooster crow from my experience.
