Is it a roo or a hen? ***Penny Bokked***

[Justino]

hen....

 

[scrapmom5]

:cdOK The current count is 3 for roo and 2 for hen. Perhaps she is just a hermaphrodite.

Do we have any other guesses???

 

[scrapmom5]

when do roos get their spur? I have looked at all of my hens and they all have a tiny dot on the inside back of their leg. Do all roos have spurs?

 

[Frizzledhen]

If she has a pea comb, at 10 weeks, you would see 3 deffinate rows. Having said that, I had 2 pea comb birds that I just gave away that I could not determine sex on at 11 weeks. Not all birds follow the rules.

I see what I think are saddle feathers. My vote is for rooster.

 

[Guitartists]

I'm no expert... but I vote for Hen

 

[moms_pantry]

I vote hen.

I have heard of hens crowing before, though I haven't had any.

Hey y'all

My penny was bok bok bok bokking today. Does this mean she is a she or can hes bok?

 

[Bec]

Penny has got me stumped, BUT roos do make all the same sounds that a hen does, he just has his own different variety of noises on top of the normal chicken noises....

I'm 100% sure this is a hen. i have 2 exactly like her. She's a banty that explains the tail feathers. More specifically she is a Miller Fluer d'uccle. I'm going to be showing mine next spring. I'll try to send a pic of my rooster.
