I purchased 6 Hens in July. They we 3 months old when I brought them home. 1st week of Nov I went out early morning to let the chickens out of the coop, my Delaware came out and started to crow. After the shock, I did some surfing and read she could be turning into a he. I noticed small nubs on her legs which I was told could be spurs growing.
Now this week, I have another hen crowing, Buckeye.
So, were these late bloomer Roosters or really changing?

It's more than likely you actually purchased 4 hens and 2 rooster! Shocking...i know

Also FYI: all chickens have buds on their legs from which spurs can grow. In most hens they remain latent but they can grow on occasion so that is no indicatation of this "sex change"

Here's the chick in question.

Nobody said anything, but I thought I'd point out... Both of the chickens in the first pic (the white one and the butt of the one on the right) are cockerels.
