francesca88 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I bought a Poland last weekend, and compared to the impressive Poland cockerel that was also there, looked like a hen. However this afternoon when I was cleaning out the coop, 'she' might have crowed... What do you think?? http://tinypic.com/m/ejv5gx/3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollie333 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Yup, that's a boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I'd say so too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daphne Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Yes its a boy - swoopy headfeathers. However, it is possible for girl polands to crow. I have one Hens of all breeds sometimes do it when they are trying to establish dominance in the absence of a cockeral or previous top hen.

Redwing Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Yes thats a male If you bought it as female ask for an exchange, there is no way a breeder should have sold you that as a female Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
