Do young pullets ever act like roos?

[DaughterOfEve]

our last batch of chicks, the americauna hen ruled the brooder. Made it clear to anyone invading her space that she was boss, even us. We were sure she has a roo. But as it turned out there were 5 roos in that straight run batch and the Americauna was not one of them. As a pullet, she was first one out of the coop in the morning too with the 5 roos coming out right behind her.

Mine just turns and walks away quickly.

Ok, phew. For a while there I was thinking I had a boat load of roos. Guess I just gotta be patient and see what's a him and who's a her.

Thanks guys, you all rock.

I have a silkie hen who acts like this--to MOST of the other birds, including the roosters.
