This one is a little over 5 months old, she didn’t get the long tail feathers like her brothers and I thought that was a little odd she wasn’t developing the same as them or posturing like they do but the eggs proved he’s actually a she! The boys combs are even larger and brighter than hers but she does have a very well endowed and bright comb. I’ve never had what I thought a cockerel start laying eggs, they usually are just late bloomers but always still a cockerel until nowIt looks like that your chicken may turn out to be a hen. I also have a almost 3 and 1 week old Speckled Sussex chick whose tail is super high and started to curve and have shiny green feathers but than 'her' comb should be way bigger if 'she's' a cockerel and I am very confused.
