Here's an odd question. It's illegal to have roosters in my town. I'm getting 4 silkies in the very near future. I love those chickens! I've been studying up on them and it seems like you won't know a hen from a rooster until it either lays or crows. The last thing I need is to find out it's a rooster when animal control shows up (I go to work before the sun comes up).
I'm curious how others in my situation have handled the no-crowing allowed rule when housing unsexed silkies.
