Everyone’s favourite game, hen or roo? All 4 of these birds are around 13 weeks. We have two big boys from the same hatch that are already crowing, but all these are quiet. The silkie is from a different batch but around the same age (the rest are barnyard mix). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)

I got them as eggs from someone who has a flock of orp, ausfralorp, ee, and brhama
Ah okay. That's pretty mixed
I was curious because most of the chicks in those pictures have dark legs.
I'm not very familiar with how it works, but if the rooster (dad) has dark legs and the hens (moms) have white or yellow legs, then only daughters will inherit dark legs. (Not sure how the sons legs will look like though)
