Redwing Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 A cockerel is the word used to describe a male bird up to his first proper moult After that the become cock birds The female versions are Pullet and Hen Rooster is the American word for the cock bird I believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
