Hi I have this miniature cross breed chicken that is starting to look and sound like a rooster and I'm worried. One of the things is he's starting to crow, not a full rooster crow, but definitely starting to get his voice. Loud egough that I can hear him from inside my house. For being such a small chicken Snow has a lot of sass. I'm hoping someone can help me out on this. Pics are attached below.

Agree with Farm boy 24. It's a cockerel. Probably a quail Belgian D'Anvers bantam or cross of that breed.
 
Age?

Almost certainly a cockeral or rooster depending on age.

If it's crowing it's almost certainly a cockeral as some hens do a mock crow but this is quite rare and generally only occurs in hens with hormonal issues or changes.
