My Old English Bantam has been behaving a little like my rooster. I'm curious if you guys could help me figure it out.

From a hatchery, SUPPOSED to be a lady, hatched June 3rd

The little one on the right, next to the Barred Rock:


Her face a little closer:

That's what I'm beginning to think!!!!

If she is a he, will he be able to perform with normal size ladies? If so I'll give up my bigger rooster, Steve. If not, we will see haha
 
Ok, confirmed, she/he crowed today. Must have heard me questioning his sex.

So now I'm stuck with the dilemma (again) of which rooster to keep. The standard rooster, steve? Or the bantam rooster, Flyer.

Is there a better choice?

If it helps, my flock consists of 2 silkies, 2 buff brahma bantams, 1 barred rock, 1 golden comet, 1 redstar, the barred old english bantam (rooster!), the other rooster (sexlink)- all 8-10 weeks old and now 2 ameraucanas (4 weeks old- separate right now).

Is there a better option for rooster for these girls?
