Can I just double check that this one is a female please because they keep raising up to full height facing each other as though they’re squaring up to each other🤗
Yes, she is still a pullet. Adolescent chickens challenge each other. It doesn't matter if the chicken is a pullet or a cockerel. You will see very similar behaviors at this stage of development.

🤣😂Thank you🤣😂I’m finding myself getting worried incase I can’t make it work with the cockerel. My other 2 aren’t bothered about them now but they’re both terrified of them and run away from them even when they’re not chasing. They look confused at their behaviour. These 2 are so different to anything I’ve had before, I don’t even know whether I’ll ever be able to let them play out like my others incase they disappear up a tree and the fox gets them at day break 🙃 Soooo stressful my others are sooo different and easy🤗xxxx

Some call that chest bumping. Both sexes do that from days old to weeks old, and it's not an indication of sex. It is so cute when they do that though! You know they're happy and having fun!
