Crowing Pullet?? 9.5 weeks - Mottled Ancona

[2ndTink]

I've had crowing pullets and crowing hens even with other cockerels and roosters.

I'm going to vote pullet, the little wattles do look a bit pink, but that's also a very small and pale comb.

Please keep us updated!!!

12 week update! Nori has not crowed again since that day. I have heard her mock some warning and snack noises that Buddy makes but I also hear that from the Hens on a normal basis.

She is very vocal. She sounds like our Babs did when she was little. Like a little goose honking about everything.

Her appearance has not changed much. Still a short pale comb and waddle, VERY skinny legs (more skinny than her brooder mates), and no change in her feather shape but I am keeping my eye on her.

I will update in a few weeks with pictures and any other details.

Also a side note, we are fully integrated as of today! The bully hen (Babs) has been reintroduced and they are sorting out the pecking order in a more peaceful manner. It has been a long 5 weeks

My Ancona is my loudest hen so I'm not surprised yours is vocal! Looking forward to seeing updated pics.
