Hi there, My young polish was taking a dust bath and trilling really loudly. Seemed oblivious to the world around it and had a chicken audience. My question is- do cockerels trill and do this behaviour too? We’ve been trying to determine if male/female

Hi all, below are pictures of our 3 week old pekin. I really hope she is a she because she is friendly and snuggly. I have been worried because she runs and jumps into the face of the boss chick. The boss chick then stands tall over her. Please let me know your thoughts
