I have a Delaware chick that I believed was and was supposed to be a pullet. SHE (I'm in denial at this point) has been looking like all the other chicks in my batch aside from my two OBVIOUSLY Rooster Buff Orpingtons. Today, when I was pulling up to my driveway after coming home from work.. I see my little Buff Rooster and the Delaware squaring up and ...squabbling. They were looking eye to eye and the buff was jumping on HER and pecking at her neck/comb, but she was fighting back try to do the same and losing. I know that hens can and will fight a bit to establish a pecking order, but I don't know if this is the case. I've also heard that Delawares have a bit of a spice to them and don't always play well with others, maybe SHE'S just trying to tell him what's up. Who knows.. hopefully someone here might.
Here are some pictures... (second post, posting this text from my computer then uploading the pics from my phone.)
Thanks in advance guys, appreciate it. If you think you need more pictures I'll gladly take more tomorrow when I have someone to hold HER for me..
