Well, I'm Back With Another, Hen Or A Roo?

Our 7 week old Buff Orphington has me suspicious, mabey I'm just paranoid, but after 2 mis-sexed birds, I'm really hoping sweet little Hazel is a girl, as advertised. Recently, her comb and wattles are a bit pinker, her legs a bit thicker, and her additude towards the cockerls is changing, circling, and fluffing up feathers. Sometimes even pecking! I'm hoping she's just going through a phase. Thanks!!!

It might be a phase. Maybe she wants to be boss and doesn’t appreciate there being boys around lol. I have hens that pick fights with the younger roosters. It’s quite terrifying to be honest.

I have the he'd of pecking order, a Leghorn, she goes after the rooster. These past few days, are the only ones I've seen, I agree though, it's probably a phase, and I'm paranoid lol.
