The Black sex link below is almost 8 months old. I made several updates on here trying to figure out if it’s a male or female. I assumed it was male once it started crowing. It hasn’t laid an egg and it has not attempted to mate with my hens. The only male like thing it does is rush to the front of the females as if it’s defending them when I approach. It has no spurs nor has it ever tried to attack me. My older hens peck at it so it doesn’t sleep with them on the roost. It crowed for a short time (a week or so) but the crow was weak and has stopped completely. It had problems eating as a chick and would helplessly cheep while the other chicks ate so I had to put food down its beak so it would survive. Perhaps it had a genetic defect? So would you say this is a hermaphrodite chicken? If so, will it ever lay eggs or crow or mate? I just don’t know what to think of this chicken.
