Hello fellow feather loving friends!
I am in need of some assistance... we have 5 silver laced Wyandottes 4 are for sure hens, they’re squatting, laying and doing hen things. I have one bird however that looks like a rooster but is super “un-roostery”. It hasn’t crowed, won’t mount any squatting hens (even if they squat in front of him/her) and sits in the nesting boxes and nests.
I’ve tried looking at the saddle feather but I honestly am not super sure what to look for... she/he has a rather pronounced comb but literally does nothing that roosters are supposed to do.
I should note that my birds are a week or two shy of 6 months.
Below there’s a picture of two of my ladies Zorro and Buckbeak and then Sid... my questionable rooster.
I really appreciate the insight, thank you!
