My Crowing Houdan Hen

Our take

Meet my crowing Houdan hen—yes, you read that right, she’s a hen! For years, this feisty feathered friend has baffled me and my roosters with her morning serenades. As spring rolls in, her delightful cacophony fills the air, creating a symphony that’s both hilarious and utterly charming. While her crowing may not win any musical awards, it’s the discordant rhythm of her calls that leaves me in stitches every time. It’s a quirky reminder of the unpredictable joys of chicken-keeping, where even the hens can steal the spotlight. Join me in celebrating this little diva and the joy she brings to my mornings—because who needs a rooster when you have a crowing hen?

Yes, this is 100% a hen. She has been crowing like this back at my roosters for years. Now that it’s spring she’s sounding off every morning. Despite the discordant rhythms of her serenade I crack up every time.
