Crowing
You know that line on a rooster's legs that looks like a red vein and is a hormone/virility thing? 1) what is it called? And 2) is it strictly a rooster thing or just a mature chicken thing? I noticed it on one of my Delawares yesterday and I have been suspicious it's a cockerel for some time but it's not super obvious yet. Then I realized I don't know what that veiny thing is called (is it just a vein?) and if pullets get it as well when they near POL. These birds are late September hatch so no eggs yet. No crowing either haha
