Hen or rooster?

[gazparkin]

Hi Everyone.

I’ve rescued what I think is a hen, but now she’s here I’m not so sure! I’ve got her separate from my two ex-batts, but she’s much larger and this may sound strange, but she’s got a really deep clucking noise. Any ideas whether he’s a he, or she’s a she? The person I rescued her from said she’d laid no eggs to date.

Hmmm...Saddle feathers say roo. Do you know if it's tail feathers have been plucked out? Any idea of age?

I rescued him from a a friend who thought it was a hen. As soon as I heard that deep voice and saw those tail feathers I thought cockerel. I’ll not be able to keep him as I live in an urban area with houses all around me. I’m going to try and get him rehomed. If you know if anywhere in the Yorkshire area that adopt, please let me know!
