Pyncheon (Pet Quality)

I tried to record this bird doing the "crow" today but of course I ran out of storage on my phone. It sounded more like a screech than crow today and was 1 time, while the bird was with me, away from others.

That's exactly what I was thinking and I promise you that I am not trying to trick you up or anything like that but I swear this bird was trying to crow 3 times yesterday whenever I brought it inside. I can't figure it out because everything but that strangeness says pullet about this bird. I've double checked the age and everything. It has been housed with too many males (which is starting to become problematic so I am working on a coop to move the males into in the next couple of days). I also have a Self Blue OEGB pullet that my daughter said tried to crow a week ago. I'll share pictures of that one too. The males I have in this group have been obvious with red combs and wattles

I've had my share pullets who'd crowed when away from their flock. I've had two this year.

OK. That makes me feel better. I was unable to find anything that said a pullet might/can/will try to crow. So this bird is still probably a pullet?

Yes, still most likely a pullet.
These are two that will crow away from the flock.

I don't have any updated pictures of them yet, but they haven't changed much.
