Good Morning Chickens Lovers ~
I am new to BYC and have just started my life with some 6 beautiful hens (2 of which may be roosters not sure yet)
. They are a mix between Amerucana (sp?) and cochin..
So far I have found some very interesting information on this website.. Thank you to all that contribute!!
Back to the possiblity of my two roosters.... when will I know for sure if they are roosters?? They are about 6 months old and I have not heard a "cock-a-doddle-doo" yet?? Do they not crow until they reach a certain age??
Also am I correct in thinking that the hens should start laying around 9 months old??
