A Fowl Mystery 🤣

Aloha
I hatched this sweet lil one almost 13 weeks ago. We thought with the large comb and wattles it was a he but both my Roo’s have been trying to mount her so now I’m thinking girl. She was a BYM I’ll try to find the list of person I got her from but she’s had a tiny bit of feathering on legs from hatching and is now getting pretty poofy muff. She’s also small so I’m wondering if one parent is a bantam. Poor thing is moulting atm but What do you think she is??

He's a cockerel and perhaps part Easter or Olive Egger x Wheaten Marans!

Easter Egger Cockerel. My best guess for the mix is the Ameracuana/EE and Wheaten Maran.


Males will mount other males to show dominance. The large comb and wattles and uneven feather pattern are signs of a cock.

Is it normal for other Roos to mount cockerels? I’d never seen that before. It does have thick boy feet that’s where the name Bebe came from, my 10 yo originally called him BBF (big boy feet)
