Rooster or Hen??

[Ballardchix]

Looking for some help in identifying if my Cochin is a rooter or hen. We thought it was a hen until she started crowing early this morning.

Welcome to BYC

If "she" was crowing chances are "she" is actually a "he" though there are some crowing hens believe it or not! The best way to find out for sure would be to post pics of him/her in the Breed/Gender section here:

The rule around here is that they are all hens until they crow - then they are roosters.

sounds like a rooster and he's proud of it

Nervous this six week old hen could be a rooster? I will post some close ups (white longhorn)
