My chicken (or cockerel) has started behaving strangely.

One of my fav chicken vids on youtube is called...The Private Life of Chickens...on there it says a hen can turn into rooster if her reproductive system is compromised or to much Testosterone is produced and not enough estrogen is produced hope this helps you.

I've read about this spontaneous pseudo-sex-change too, but I couldn't work out if it's something to be worried about or if you're supposed to just let it happen. If this is happening to my hen, am I supposed to get it treated? What conclusion did you draw from what you saw?

not much can be done on our part to stop it,you still might want to look for more chickens so she wont be alone just in case if she turns into a rooster she will do the same tasks a rooster will do but without the making chicks part.
