Many people use the term chicken to talk about a hen or rooster.
If you think of chicken as the species name – like human, dog, cat, etc., it will make better sense.
Pullet
A pullet is a young female chicken that has not started laying eggs yet; a female chicken is under one year of age.
Some folks say that a female chick is a pullet. Whilst that is technically true, the generally understood definition of a pullet is a female chicken at around the ‘teenage’ time of 12-16 weeks old.
Another definition you will hear is that a female chicken is a pullet until her first molt.
Cockerel
A boy chick is known as a cockerel until he is 1 year old; at this point, he becomes a cock or rooster, depending on where you live.
The term cockerel is used in the UK and Europe. In the US, the more general rooster is used Cockerels will start to crow around 12-16 weeks, although some breeds do start earlier.
If the cockerels are wise, they will watch and imitate the head rooster of the flock.
They will also do well to be submissive to him. Any signs of an uppity cockerel and the rooster will soon put him in his place.
Roosters – Males as breadwinners and Responsible for his Flock
Once a cockerel is over one year old or has become matured and has the ability to mate, he is considered a rooster. However, he must still defer to the older rooster if there is one.
In the wild, groups of young cockerels hang out together until they find a flock of their own, and then they leave the group.
Like a rooster, he is expected to guard his flock, provide food for them, warn them and take care of things for them. He will intervene in squabbles so that no one gets hurt.
He has to be constantly watching for challenges from the younger roosters. If they fight and he is beaten, the new rooster will claim the flock.
The old rooster may hang around on the periphery of the flock or move away altogether.
Hens
After a pullet lays her first egg, she will be considered a hen.
She will now be noticeable to the rooster’s eyes.
Healthy hens will lay eggs as often as her cycle tells her to. A hen has no control over this. She will lay through the first year and then stop laying as her first molt starts.
She will start laying once her feathers are grown in and continue to lay for several more years until ‘old age.’ When does she stop laying? That depends on the breed and the individual hen.
Most heritage hens will lay into their 3rd or 4th year, while hybrids will be lucky to see the 3rd year of laying.
Of course, they do lay sporadically after that time, but not very reliably.
These fleshy, conspicuous growths are perched atop the chicken’s head and dangle from their neck, right below the beak. They can range from a pink to dark red in color.
Can Roosters Lay Eggs?
Roosters (males) can never lay eggs, only HENS (females) can lay eggs.

Conclusion: Mankind has become worst than animals!
Allah Ta’alaa has created humans in pairs. Females give birth. Men cannot give birth despite their failed attempts. What has caused Mankind to stray to that which is worst than animals? Do they wish to transform our genders? Did they create us? If they claim to have created us and claim that males can be females then how is that till today they cannot cause a pregnancy in males? This is proof they are feeble just as their propaganda machines. The Shaytaan backed agents wish to indoctrinate our kids with filth but the truth of their efforts will prevail!
