Janty Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) No not one of mine this time! Makes a change, I know. A friend from another forum has just got two pekins. One has started crowing and although the face furniture looks male to me, the tail doesn't. My gut reaction is that it's a cockerel but I would be happy for people to disagree with me.

Chook n Boo Mum Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I'd say boy too..... Berry's saddle & "boy feathers" were very late in arriving, his headgear developed much quicker by comparison.....sorry Sha x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I'd say cockerel too - the comb is large. Stunning bird though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janty Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 The owner is fortunate enough to be able to keep him so she has been to a breeder over the weekend and collected two more pekin wives for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Yup, BOY. Mind you one of my pekin girls sometimes crows a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickyhazel Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Definitely a boy, but cockerels can be just as nice as chickens if you can keep them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
