She or he

[Crazyfarmlady25]

I got this Easter egger with 3 others. Was told she is a hen. Tonight she was mounting another of the hens. Is she a he? If is a he we would probably rehome cus we didn't want any roosters. When got we were told we had to take her cus she was bonded with another hen if she is a he can I keep the hen or would I need to rehome both? I didnt want her until I found out bonded to the one I wanted and the guy I got them from said they were all hens.

Is she a he?

Definitely a male as indicated by the very pointed and flowing saddle feathers.

They do not need to be rehomed together.. that's up to you.

Images for example (usually accurate around 16+ weeks of age, not usually seen starting before 12 ish weeks)..

When we got them they said they were all 16-20 weeks. I figured he knew they were all hens now I'm wondering if told me they were bonded so I would take him. More surprised that tonight was the first signs she was a he. No crowing my australorp is the loud hen. There was no mounting til today. I'm tempted to message the guy back but don't think he will take it back. If I rehome it could I try to get some money or just give away?

Just give him away. You can try selling him but i think 5 to 10 dollars would be the most you could get. He is beautiful though!
