Janepie33 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Our little bantam has started crowing! Not quite a full cock - a - doodle - do but almost. She is definitely a girl as she has been laying for the last month or so. Just wonder what is going on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

millie Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 one of my banties stands next to our lad and when he does the cock a doodle do, she doodle do's twice. Think it would be rare for her to change sex, as if i remember correctly they have to carry a certain gene which is quite rare, otherwise the hens in battery farms etc would be changing. I could poss be wrong and wait to be corrected please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
