Can a rooster lay eggs?
Roosters can't lay eggs, but chickens can be sexually reversed.

The cock crows and the hen lays eggs. This is common sense that we are familiar with. If someone told you that a rooster can lay eggs, you would definitely doubt it. Recently, in Rudong Tea, there appeared a rooster who can lay eggs. It's really a big world, and it's full of wonders. The owner of the chicken is curious, but he also wants us to help ask the experts what this is about.

Yin Liming, 5 1 year-old, lives in Bennan Village, Bencha Town and has been running a chicken farm for more than 20 years. In February this year, he bought more than 200 chickens. Chickens grow up gradually, all cocks are eliminated for meat, and now there are more than 100 hens, which are reserved for laying eggs. But recently, before dawn, the rooster crowed in the feeding shed full of hens.

Because it was a chicken and a cage, Yin Liming quickly found the crowing chicken. Yin Liming, a chicken farmer in Bencha Town, Rudong County: It turned out that I was all hens left here. I felt rather strange. I searched and found one in the middle, ready to kill it, but there was an egg in it. Yin Liming said.

Before, this chicken looked like a hen. But now, it has a high comb and its feathers have changed, which is completely like a rooster. And for several days, this chicken laid eggs again. Yin Liming, a chicken farmer in Bencha Town, Rudong County: Like what Zhao Benshan said in his sketch, I really met a rooster who can lay eggs.

I have raised chickens for more than 20 years, and this is the first time I have seen them. The reporter consulted Ju Weidong, an expert on animals and plants. He said that this situation is called "sex reversal". Hens generally only have the left ovary working normally. If the ovary is damaged due to a tumor or other reasons, the right ovary will wake up and start working instead of the damaged ovary.

But this ovary may also develop into testicles, and the probability is one in ten thousand. Yin Liming, a hen, turned into a crowing rooster in this situation. But what is even rarer is that this chicken's left ovary still produces estrogen, so it can still maintain the characteristics of laying eggs, which has become a talk in the sketch.

The rooster that lays eggs, the fighting chicken in the rooster. Therefore, it is grumpy and loves to trample on its own eggs.
