Hi there y’all, I’ve tried to word this multiple different ways but google isn’t giving me the info I need, so I need your alls help…(skip to the BUTTT if u don’t wanna read the story on why this all happened) I went to incubate some eggs about 5-6 months ago bcuz my dog killed 4 of my girls..
(I had just gotten 2 new ones and someone threw a third one in my yard and Ig he didn’t like the way they smelled so he killed them and one of my originals got into the mix so I gathered some of her old eggs and the other chickens eggs that I had sitting around and incubated them, they were laying allot at the time)
(ps that may sound like much but that chicken was my baby, she ran up to me and would want cuddles and stuff, so I was pretty heartbroken and tryna make a child of hers to carry on her spirit Ig
but the eggs were over 2 weeks old and my incu is old too so I had to keep readjusting it till it worked and after that kept failing (I need a new one lol) I finally got it but by that time it was too late for the old eggs and only two made it BUTTT I got what I believe are two roosters, the 2nd born has long legs but they’re skinny, has a rooster tail, bcuz they have them long feathers that go over the shorter ones but he still makes the sweet little chirpy bocking sounds and has a small comb and little round bagoggle things on his chin, the 1st born is soo obviously a rooster, he clucks, he has a pretty prounced rooster face and comb and his little dangely things are getting bigger, he also just started mating this week and making multiple different sounds my other roosters make. Like u can look at him and tell and the other one it’s kinda like.. hmm
another thing about the 2nd born, he has an egg like female-Ish chest..like if u go to ur girls and pick them up and feel their chest u can feel if they’re about to lay an egg or not and that’s what his chest feels like, like he wants to drop the egg sitting in his chest. I have read that females can take on the characteristics of a rooster especially like in their situation of being raised together by themselves, so she copy’s him but idk if it’s that or if it a boy..idk
I’ll add a photo of them for ur perspectives. (Also when the 2nd was born she was very girly, everything about’er, was for certain she’d be a she but idk anymore..also they were born a couple days to a week apart.
