Hello All,

I rescued a bantam, not sure what breed quite yet, perhaps an Old English? She is really tiny, smaller than I think she should be but I think she is still youngish? All I know about her past is that she was living IN an apartment with an older, disabled man and all he fed her was table scraps, pancakes in particular I guess. She's never been with other chickens or lived outside but is acclimating well so far.

She is so docile, sweet, kind, friendly to humans but a little aggressive/defensive towards my other hens, they are separated at night for the time being. My main concerns are her health, do you guys thinks she looks OK? Should I have her checked out? My second concern is how vocal she is in the mornings, is there any possibility I have a rooster? I really don't think so but after this morning I have to question it. I have only had her a few days and know little about this particular breed. I am doing my research but I thought I would also post here to see what others had to say. Thanks!

Here's Rosie!

I transferred this post over to the breed/gender section, I didn't realize there was one!
