Trans hen?

[Aussie Casey]

I have a hen that has stopped laying, tries to crow like a rooster and tries to mate with another hen.
Has anyone else had this?

How old is she? Sometimes older hens whose female hormones start decreasing can begin acting like males. In fact, after a molt, she may even develop a rooster's hackle, saddle and sickle feathers!

Despite this, she will never be able to fertilize eggs; she's still a hen.

She's only young, just entered her laying age.
The not laying doesn't bother me as they are pets too not just producers. But I feel awful for the hen she targets, she's quite aggressive.

How old, in months?
How long was she laying?

I assume you are in AU?
Here's how to add your general geographical location to your profile.
It's easy to do, and then it's always there!

Are you sure she's laying? Perhaps she is actually male? Can you post a picture?
