8-week-old crowing??!! (not good)

[Three Little Bunnies]

Hi!

I have an eight-and-a-half-week-old barred bantam Cochin cockerel. One of my family members thinks they heard him crowing this morning. Is that possible? I have heard him say buc-buc-buc-PEEP before.

Yep they can start early. I had a barred rock that began attempting crowing around 9 weeks or so.
