This was supposed to be a cuckoo pullet. I got it at about 1-2 months old and gave it to my mother, whose chickens promptly scalped it, so I took it back. Now it is huge, and mounts my hens, but i haven't heard a peep out of it much less a crow, and it's between 4-5 months old now. It's only a little bigger than my cuckoo pullet. Is this a roo, and if so, why hasn't it crowed and what color would you call that? Thanks!! This is it next to my cuckoo pullet
That is a roo, but I have no clue what you would call the color? Maybe a cuckoo x black copper cross?
It appears to be a cross. I had a rooster that I thought would never crow. I think he had been the low guy on the totem pole where he came from. One day I saw him high in a tree. From there he crowed for the first time. I guess he felt safe up there. He crows all the time now.

Quote:Yes, definitely light for a pullet. But the comb says girl? The other is definitely a roo, probably a mix.
They are the same age, very different looking, I'm hoping at least the light one is a girl. definitely a smaller comb than the roo.
