Pullet crowing???

[Yard Farmer]

Thank you all for all of your help. Any advice on letting my three 6 weeks old chicks join the flock?

Put them in a dog kennel so they can both see each other, and do that for 2 weeks.
(If you free range) I like to let them free range together after the 2 week period.

New chicken owner here. I bought sexed Easter Eggers that were supposed to be all female. They will be 3 months old June 6th. The last two mornings we have heard one crowing. We haven’t caught them doing it, so we don’t know which one (we have 12). Do we have a rooster? And how can we tell?

If you hear crowing you have one. But be ok because Easter Egger Roos are one of the gentlest roos. Hopefully you will only have one.

Give a fenced off area that only the 6 week olds can get under. Put them all in that secured area. They will venture out when they feel ready and return to their siblings at night. Don't force a 6 week old out of that area. They will go when ready.
