Rooster
| A male chicken is called a cockerel or rooster. A female chicken is called a hen.A cockerel is much bigger then the hen. Cockerels do not lay eggs. A hen lays her eggs on soft leaves or straw. When a chick is born it is very hungry. New born chicks do not like the cold so there mother fluffs up her feathers to keep them warm. Chicks learn to recognise their mother by her shape. |
