Natty the Orp!

natty looks like a girl but i think penny might be a cockerel but thats just a guess or maybe a hen could have a hormone issue

Yup, those are my only other chickens (besides a bunch of babies brooding) that aren’t yet laying. I thought they were likely pulleys because they with wrap their wings around my hand and kind of tuck it in as they might with a clutch of eggs. I don’t know if Roos do that? Also, They look like pullets to me.

How old are the babies? I have had young crowers!

How old are these two in the photos?

How old are your chicks? Are they outside? I had a cockerel start crowing before he was 1 month so this is why I’m asking!

Barred Rocks, and two Ameraucanas are 4 months old, the other four (Orp, Astralorp-looking chick, and two Olive Eggers) are 3.5 months old. They’re outside, coop and run with a few hours of free ranging every day.

Added a window and more vents, along with big tarps for shade. Oh, and a “front porch” and outside roosts

** Edited to say that I misread the question! The photos are about two an a half hours old. The chicks are 3.5 and 4 months old.

I have a feeling that your chicks may be the culprits?
