Hen or Roo?

[PekinPal806]

Hi everyone, I recently hatched some chicken eggs I got from a friend and they are a few weeks old now and one has started to crow but another one who I thought was a hen might be a rooster but I can’t tell very good lol. The black one is the one we’ve seen crowing but the white one we’re not too sure. I’m also not sure on the breeds, they were a couple different breeds mixed in the same coop but the white one seems to be Brahma and Americana?

How old are they?

How old are they?

About a month and a half

At that age, comb that read and growing that much means both are cockerels

Ok thank you! Should I worry about them fighting when they are older? They seem to act fine now?

Depends upon space, hens, humans, and the birds themselves.
