Awww no junebuggena you're confirming a suspicion I've had for a while! The Araucana in question (formerly known as Betty White) is much beefier than the other of the same age, with more solid legs as well, but hasn't crowed. When I bought the two I had them double check to make sure both were pullets but I suppose everyone makes mistakes. Ah, what to do

The darker shading through the shoulder/wing is specific to males.
