Guess Who?

[Chirpy Chick]

I'm 8 months old
I don't Crow or act like a typical Roo but i haven't laid an egg yet either. I did have a cold about 6 weeks ago and went to the vets for some Antibiotics but I'm fine now.

What breed am I?
Am I a Roo or a Hen?

I hope you can help.

Thank you Ducky
(yes that is my name, I blame the parents

That's a roo. Pretty! I think it's a mix.

He may be a little behind from having been sick. Sometimes if you have another bigger roo, the younger ones won't crow. That's what mine do anyway.

The saddle feathers so it's a roo. The crowing will come, it always does. Enjoy the quiet while you can.

Thought so Roo he is then! shame the 5 hens we have will be the only ones happy about that

Not sure what the neighbors will make of us keeping a Roo but we will cross that bridge we we get to it.

Thank you

That is a roo, but he looks short legged so I'd say he's a Silver Grey Dorking, where did he come from and does he have a fifth toe?

Look at these http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry/CGD/Dorks/BRKDorks.html

 

[Chirpy Chick]

He does have a five toes yes, a Silver Grey Dorking

I have just looked them up on the internet and I think your right, thank you I would never have guessed
