Really?

Did you know that a hen will not crow under any circumstances? It's true. So imagine my surprise when one of my 5 hens looks me in the eye, takes a deep breath, and crows lustily :)

...

So now I have a pet. His name is Rocky and he is the gentlest of all 5 chickens.

The Barred Rock hen...

They look nothing alike in the head now that I know one is a rooster and one a hen :)

Don't count your chickies til they're hatched!
