What did I get? Potential rooster?

[Painted Calls]

Now I'm concerned that the second chick hatched is also a cockerel in the making. He is a big baby, still hanging onto Momma and cheaping like a baby! He is getting really long legs and standing tall like a rooster does. Damn, he was supposed to be Mabel! One thing about this chick, he/she trills. Especially at bed time, he will go into the coop, roost and trill and trill like crazy. I used to think it was because he was happy with Mom, but she doesn't roost with him any more and he is doing it now more than ever!

Definitely a cockerel.

Can I just say though that this picture is amazing? Those long legs are so close together. With his wing set it almost looks like he's got his hands on his hips. He looks very displeased about something.

He may look irritated, but this is the happiest chick I've ever raised. He trills and sings and is pretty entertaining to watch!
