aw , i was hoping it was a rooster cause the rooster got killed by somthing a few weeks back , and now its all hens so no more fertle eggs for my bator , i thought that this one might be cause of how big the ?crest? is the red thing on its head lol .

Look for chickens with saddle feathers... do you know what that means? They are long skinny feathers on their back near their tail.
That is usually a dead give away.

Looks like a typical Rhode Island Red or New Hampshire Red Hen.

Definately a hen. She should be laying, looks like.

It's a hen...and the thing on top of the birds head is called a COMB.

The red things hanging below the beak are called WATTLES.

its comb doesnt look big enough to be a rooster
