Someone is crowing!?

[farsouth]

Thanks for all your help. I'm pretty devastated especially with Speckle as she/he is my favourite and so friendly. At least if push comes to shove they have the option to go back to the smallholding where we got them which is a pretty nice place. But it breaks my heart!

Well, it's obvious to an experienced eye at this point that both are males. I can plainly see the male feathers on the red one (those pointed, draping feathers on the back above the tail) without even zooming in.

Maybe you should post pictures of the other two JIC. If you are going to the trouble of re-homing, it's best to know how many, exactly, there are to place and at 5 months, they aren't going to fool the people here.

They are beautiful boys! I'm sorry you have to rehome one. Such a difficult task.

They both look like boys to me. Although, if it makes you feel any better, I had to find a home for my olive egger that lays the most gorgeous sage green eggs. SHE CROWED EVERY MORNING...

I don't have any that crow but hens can be SO NOISY when they sing after laying an egg! It's still nothing compared to learning your rooster has a thing for crowing at 2-3AM in the pitch black for no apparent reason.

As pretty as he was, I don't miss that guy.

When I had 3 they would compete at 4 am. It's so quiet without them and I don't miss the constant crowing or them peeping in my house windows all day.
