HE/SHE IS 20 WEEKS OLD. I THOUGHT IT WAS A HEN FOR SURE BUT THIS AFTERNOON WHEN I LET THEM FREE RANGE (1 BO ROO N 1 BO HEN ALONG WITH THIS DEL ) HE/SHE AND THE BO ROO DID SOME SERIOUS FIGHTING LEEDING ME TO BELIVE IT MAYB A ROO?

Can't see your photos, but hens will fight with roo's too. I have a Barred Rock hen and she is the leader. She kicks everyones butt, even the roo.

It's My Experience That The Folks At This Site Who Know How To Tell Hen From Roo Will Probably Want Some Additional Info About This He/she - Pictures If Possible, Description Of Feathering Patterns(check Out Chickens 101 For Pictures Of Hen Vs Roo Feather Features), Any Other Suspicious Behavior Like Crowing...etc. Newly Introduced Birds Will Pick/fight Either Gender And Are You Sure It Wasn't Rough Mating?( Altho If He's A He And Truly 20 Wks He Might Be Too Young...) He's Bound To Declare Him/her Self Eventually...have Fun!!!
