I think my She is a He :-(

I wish I remember how old she was in that photo.....but I don't. She is the largest of my hens, but still a she and that was a young photo. Her comb is now very large. I don't think I have any newer photos since her comb has gotten bigger. I'll have to take another. I call her the "Frankenchicken" cause she looks like all different parts (colors) put together to make one chicken.

I had no idea there was such a thing as a Turken - I thought those only existed on the Food Network (you know, like a tur-duck-en)

She (or he) made me smile!

Yes, he's a boy. He has to be young, I still see chick fuzz.

That's why I said we need the age. The turkens red up awful early.

that is just because they are so embarrassed for being SOOOOOOOOOOOO ugly!

and yes, I know this will generate some debate

Not only is there a breed called turkens aka naked necks, did y'all know that pure bred turkens are naturally immune to most chicken diseases? That puts more checks in their good column as far as I am concerned.

To the OP - If that chick is only a month old, I change my answer from yes, roo to maybe.

Two week old turken roo comb:

12 week old turken pullet's comb:
