Hello
I hope someone can help!
I bought two 5 month old pekin bantam hens today from a garden centre. I even asked the person selling them if they are both definitely hens & was told yes.
However at bedtime I was stunned to see the grey bantam fully mount the gold bantam. I have never seen a cockerel mount a hen before but that it what it looked like to me!
Is there any way I can tell if this pekin bantam is a cockerel or a hen? I’m afraid I don’t want a cockerel so I’m hoping I can return him if I know for sure he’s a cockerel! Any advice would be great!
