Brahma hen or Cockerel?

[Emmey]

Hello i have light brahma who i think is a hen because she sit in a nest so i ordered 2 males at a hatchery. But now i think she is actually a he. She is 1 year old.

Looks male. Can you show a pic of the other one?

We haven't got the chicks in. But this is her siblings we got with her. Who i know is female.

And this is one of our buff roosters

Looks like a hen to me. I don't see the pointy neck feathers your rooster sports and no sickle feathers. My hen looks just like that (but buff colored - lol) at 2 yrs old. But I am no expert...

Why do you think she's a he?

She isn't as fluffy as much as her sister, but the reason I ask is because she started clucking like nuts and the roosters were joining her. Thank you for your opinion.

She's probably just singing the egg song after she laid an egg Roosters often will join in. She is definitely a hen

Oh my goodness yes! The egg song! Haha! I have 7 hens. When they all get going in the morning and the rooster joins in, it's crazy! I SWEAR the girls are much louder than my boy!

I never heard of egg laying song, most of my chickens keep quiet when it comes to laying eggs. But you learn something new everyday.

It's the bawk-bawk-bawk-bawk-ba-GAWK that is ubiquitous in cartoons and whatnot.
