Normal for a 6 week old Roo to crow??

[Khelms829]

So I’m curious I’ve got a chick that was hatched on 9/29, so he’s 6 weeks old, and he very quickly made it known that he was a Roo by his temperament and cockiness . He is a Leg Horn crossed with a Black Maran Roo…. Anyways he’s still in the house in a brooder, yes I’m moving them out very shortly, and the other morning I heard the most pitiful crow…. From what I’ve read Roo’s start crowing around 4-5 months since he’s only 6 weeks I’m wondering if this is going to be the Problem Child Roo

I wouldn't say it's abnormal, but it's also not super common for a cockerel to crow so early.

It's not super common, but it does happen. One of my boys started at 8 weeks old. The other started at 9 or 10 weeks I think. So they started relatively early. Someone on here posted videos of 1 day old chicks crowing too.

Awe the video reminds me of the old animal planet videos of the lion cubs trying to roar

One of mine started at 4 1/2 weeks.
