GOODBYE GUMBO

[Chellester]

Any update on the Gumbo gender mystery?

Hum... Geesh, those first set of pics have me thinking hen, but the second set has me scratching my head.

Any word on Gumbo/Gumbette?

Can you get closer pictures. I THINK I see roo feathers on the neck and above the tail but I can't see them that great.

 

[Southern28Chick]

I just noticed this is an old thread. Is he a she???

Well, guys , still don't know. No eggs and no crowing. Gumbo does chase the other pullets and like herd them, but maybe he/she is just grumpy. Still a mystery to me.

Okay, so this am I was taking my son up the driveway to catch the bus, and, who is standing tall on his perch crowing away...........GUMBO. So, mystery solved. I tried to video, but then he decided he was done. Maybe I can catch him in the act later. Thanks to everyone for a fun guessing game.

It looked like a roo just because of the saddle feathers being so long.

I had a buff cochin who I swear NEVER crowed til he was a year old. and then he only crowed it he was far away from my head roo. I probably only heard him crow 4 or 5 times in his life.

Well, I was wrong on this one!

I am happy the Gumbo mystery has been finally solved.

Could you please post a pic of Gumbo in the next few months? I would like to see what he looks like in a few months.
