Chest-bumping?

[kellykate]

Does a chest bumping 3-week chick indicate Roo? I have a bantam Frizzle who has a little pink comb and has been chest-bumping other chickens? It is supposed to be a girl (sexed by MPC) but I am now second-guessing! What age do you start to here the start of a crow? Thanks for your help!

Nope, the females chest bump too. I have a 3 week old female buff orp, and a female Isa brown that both do it. I'm not sure on the crowing. All mine are too young yet.

Nope. I've had some hens that worse about it than the boys!

Whew! I feel so much better that there is still a chance that it is a pullet!! I guess only time will tell!

Oh MPC is www.mypetchicken.com -- they do sex bantams and ship in small orders which were two things I needed
