My roo baby thinks he's a goose

[Kezzie]

My 10 week old Cuckoo Maran roo decided today was the day he was going to become a man. He let out this ear-splitting noise that sounded like a two-note goose honk. It scared everyone in the run including him. Then he went about foraging trying to pretend it wasn't him making that embarrassing noise. I wish I had audio to share...

They are soo fun to watch grow up and their first attempts at crowing are hilarious. They always sound really bad.

All my chickens honked around that age..... It is TOOO funny!

I made a croing sound at my rooster and he tried to crow back but nothing came out but he made the motion with his beak like he was actualling crowing
