That’s what I thought, the only thing I found weird was when we introduced a few new hens last week she puffed out her neck and got on top of them almost like a rooster would.. thought maybe it was just pecking order but none of our other hens did that.. and I also thought I saw some spurs coming in but i might be mistaken

My hens get puffy like a rooster when they’re mad or when they don’t want to be bothered by my younger rooster. All chickens grow little nubs where the spurs would be but roosters will grow out into spurs. I hadn’t that same scare with mum first batch of chicks. She’s very pretty.
How old is she? If she is mounting other chickens then she is most likely a hen.
About 16 weeks. Got them mid to end March just as chicks. We had 4 others of her breed.. unfortunately two escaped from the coop and the other was a rooster who tried fighting off a hawk.
Where did you acquire these chickens?
