Got the audo this time of the hen "crowing" or is it a rooster?

[WL67]

Continuation of my new obsession- trying to ascertain my chicken's gender... Here's the link to youtube audio...17 seconds in there's a noise. Crow or egg song?
Thanks in advance!

That is surely a rooster crowing, it will get better in time

OH THAT IS SOOOO NOT AN EGG SONG!
Egg song sounds like "buck- buck- buck- BUGAWK!"
You have a proud young cockerel there.

Welcome to BYC.

Absolutely a crow. Youngsters' attempts are usually rather funny sounding. But it will get better!

Yes this is what I was afraid of...he was supposed to be a she! He is lovely and is part of the family. Now we have to get rid of him.

Thanks for your help.

Omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is sooooooo funny! Sounds just like my "Thelma" when she/he was first learning to crow, she's/he's a expert now. He's just 4 months old... Such a sweet sound in the mornings & evenings.

Maybe his crow will stay short and sweet like it is now. How annoying can that be... I think it's cute

yep.... that is the crowing of a young rooster for sure.
