Comb looks large, for a female though. You have a weird one, if she's actually a she.

I’ve seen some females with big combs like

and another pic of Smokey & Bagel playing in the grass

And I’ve seen some with flat combs and turned out to be Roos

Flat, but enlarged. Flatness is due to the smooth comb gene.

This is also her and bagel playing in the grass it’s so cute

The age of 6 months will definitely confirm gender. I'm still on the cockerel side.

i already know she’s a girl, there’s actually a story behind her. And I also asked @PippinTheChicken and she also said probaly a girl. But yeah there’s a huge story behind this Smokey

And rn she hasn’t crowed or showing any aggression. Even my systers porcelin d‘uccle roo did the wing dance to her and Smokey just stood there ( My sisters D’uccle roo is the same age as Smokey, he crows but it sounds bad lmaooo )

I've had hens dance to show dominance towards other hens, or roosters. Roosters also dance towards other roosters. Roosters will mount roosters, & Hens will mount hens to show dominance.

12 weeks is kinda early for crowing to start, usually it happens between 4-6 months of age.

Occasionally crowing can happen between 3-4 weeks of age, but both sexes can crow, I've had it happen.

I’m not fully sure if she’s 12 weeks but I did get her in Febrary But idk how much weeks that is tbh

That makes 4 months of age.
