[Brinsonflock]

Hello I am new to backyard flockin and I read up first but it is not real till you are in it. So my issue is that I got 6 chick from my local TSS first of April and I have raised these lady thinking they are all hens
But at about 12 weeks old now my ISA Brown is crowing. She does do it a lot mostly the three times I hear her was to get my attention out of the garden. Is my favorite girl a roo Or is just making noise if so why and how can I get her to stop? Are any of my other ladies rooster please help!

Any males should have had bright red combs by about 6 weeks old.

I can't see the red gray & white one, but the one that looks like a barred rock has awful light feathering & the comb is big for 12 weeks. If the ISA brown is the red sex link, I would think she is a hen. The one with red on the body with gray & white would make me suspicious, but you don't show the head. Red shoulders on ones like EEs mean roo. I would think a Barred Rock rooster. Are you sure the ISA brown is the one crowing?
Edited to add: I can see now the gray, white & rusty one in the 1st picture does have a very red comb, although not as big as the BR looking one. I would suspect 1 of those two being your crower.

How old were the chicks when you got them? Did they have feathers yet?
Because you got them about 9 weeks ago.

The one with her front half brown and her tail white looks like an ISA brown pullet--is that the one crowing? (She's in the 2nd and 3rd photos.)

The others I'm not sure.

As aart said, bright red combs are a good indicator. (Eventually, the females will get bright red combs when they're ready to lay eggs--but there's a good stretch of time when males have red combs and females don't yet.)

I was able to zoom in and then drag the picture around a little bit, and see the head. The comb does look rather red.

Hi cindy in Pa... yes sandwich is the one crowing the first time I heard it I thought it was one of the others the Isa Brown is my biggest one she walk right up to me and crowed I was like shut up because of the neighborhood.

Each chicken has so many colors I'm having trouble figuring out whether we're all talking about the same chicken.

Can you post a photo of the chicken that crowed, with no others in the picture?
Or draw a circle around the one that crowed?
