Olive egger (hen) with Spurs

[JessMay]

We noticed today that one of our olive eggers, which we thought was a hen, has Spurs. Is this commin for this breed or have we had a roo without knowing? She doesn’t crow and does not show any signs of being a rooster

She's a hen, and sometimes they have spurs.

That’s what we figured. Thank you

Yep not too uncommon as they get older.

I'd say hen. My 2 year old Olive Egger's got spurs, too. Almost the exact same length as yours!

Some hens do grow spurs most commonly game hens as they get older.
