This orp is 8 weeks old and at 2 weeks started crowing,but now it has stopped and its comb and wattles are a light yellow.Its in with a 8 week old blue orp that has started crowing a couple weeks ago.I`m thinking now that it might be a girl,what do you thingk???
I would guess pullet - are you sure this one was crowing?
Yes because I hatched them in the house and they were in a fish tank and I watched him her crowing and my dh and I would start laughing because we had never seen one that young crow.There was only the two of them

Sometimes hens will crow. We have a Sebright hen that crows.
Are the wings long or are they short and blunt? Our Orpington hens had long wings at a young age and the roo had more blunt shorter wings.
Here is a picture of wings
Well they look more pointy like they are close to the back at the tail? I'm thinking pullet.
I sure hope so
It sure looks like a pullet... I thought that in the picture of the 2 together.
I stilll think its a girl
