This is Henrietta. My rare chick that sticks out among all the white leghorns. She is a dominique and from all the pictures I can find I assumed a female. Being a first time chicken mom, I'm not so sure anymore because at 15 weeks she has started to crow. I have all ladies, besides the questionable one, so some opinions about roo or pullet would be nice. Thanks

It looks like a rooster to me. Besides, if it starts to crow...well that's usually a male trait although a very few hens will crow if no other roosters are around, but I'm saying male based on the size of the wattles.

ROO! Look at those legs! And true crowing is a dead give away!
He should now be Henry!

I would go with a rooster, because my Domenique has way smaller wattles. and she is been laying eggs for a while now.
 
I am heartbroken. I live in the city and can't have roosters. Henry(aka Henrietta) was my favorite, but now he must relocate. Thanks for all the help.
