She acts like a hen I’m pretty sure she’s laid before but sometimes mimics a crowing type noise.. IMG_4902.jpeg IMG_4903.jpeg IMG_4906.jpeg IMG_4905.jpeg
 
How old?

She looks like she's got a little bantam cochin in her. I have an old one that looks a lot like her.

The comb looks like it's trying to be a walnut so if it's still young, it may keep going as I see some wattles coming too.

Hen's can sometimes make rooster noises but to outright crow, that's very rare.

shes about 11 months, she doesnt crow but looks like she is mimicking one.

Ah, then it's a hen as a rooster would have more wattles and comb than she's got. Well, you've just got one that likes to mimic a roo then!
