My "hen" is crowing!

[nicoleelizabeth]

Here's a few pictures of Prima. She was crowing again bright and early and also does it when someone comes to the door (and she hears the dogs barking.) Maybe she thinks she's of the canine persuasion and this crowing is the best she can do to participate in the guarding of her territory?! Anyway, can anyone give their opinion as to "its" gender??

I can't tell

The comb is kinda red, but at 4 mo it could just be she's getting ready to lay? I know its not my chicken, but I'd love to hear from all the "roo-sayers" what about this chicken makes you say roo?
What I'd really love is for someone to take the picture John Madden style and put little arrows and x's at the features that tell them its a roo.

On some chickens its soooo easy, but this one I think is one of those tough ones.

Legs are easy to mistake. Colour in the male pattern areas? Girls don't ever get that.

See the red on the back and wings? You have a boy.

Im sorry, but she sure looks like a he to me. Throw in the fact that he is crowing, his comb & feathering; you got a nice looking Roo.

So Prima is now Primo?
