We've started the crowing...

[Chicken Frenzie]

I have a cockerel who was born this spring at my school, Laker. He is a leghorn mix. He hasn't gotten the courage to crow before this morning. July 22nd, I hatched out 6 chicks. 3 are boys. So they're 1 1/2 months old. I wake up at 7:00 am to get ready for school, when I heard Laker trying to crow, but it sounded more like a low gurgling sound. It was so cute! But I hear this high pitch perfect crow, and what do you know. Julie a white old English game bantam was chest high, crowing. It was so high pitch! One after another, crowing! It was so cute!!! I knew Julie was a bou since he was about a week old. But this young! Man oh man. Thought this was funny

Yes My OEG bantam started that young too. He is now 1.5 years old and we refer to it as a "squeaky toy"... Bantams tend to have a "unique" crow

Yeah I've never had a bantam rooster, just hens. Usually my LF don't crow until 5-10 months old!
