Silkie rooster egg song?

[Mak2689]

Hi everyone,

I have a 4 month or so old silkie that were pretty sure is a roo. He has pretty large waddles a decent sized comb. He has been living in the house.

Today I was outside using a saw to work in the future coop and my husband came out to tell me he has been making noise and to come see. I'm pretty sure the silkie was singing the egg song, but he seemed agitated, probably from the noise of the saw.

I had read that sometimes hens will sing the song if they are agitated or scared, but do roosters do that as well? Or is it likely that he is a she?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Some stress sounds seem somewhat like the egg song. Can you post a picture of him? Even if a pullet 4 months is very early for a silky to be thinking about laying.

I figure it was more likely to be a stress sound but I couldn't find much about if roos made the same ones as hens. I figured that he would attempt to crow or something.

Here's a few pics of his head

I believe that is a cockerel.
