A rooster is never too old to crow, he just might not do it as often.
Roosters don't have to crow early in the morning. My rooster crows all day, and our neighbor's old chicken crowed all the time. They don't really crow in the morning.
I have 6 chicks that are 4 months old today and cinco started to try to crow a few weeks ago uno started crowing today. You can tell by there names I can count in Spanish in the order they hatched.. lol Cinco's crow isn't what you would really call a "Crow" like he or she is trying but isn't getting it down yet so I am hoping that she's a male impersonator (which I have read are out there) seriously. And Uno's crow is an A+ rooster crow like he hold his head high and really belches it out. Definitely a rooster Mr. Cogburn (John Wayne movie) lol Hopefully this helped you.
give him more vitimins and food
It depends. Some roosters start crowing when only 2 months old while others start at about 5 months old.
Absolutely yes. The young rooster (cockerel) will make his first practice crows at about 3 to 4 months old and keep going from there. Even if he is the only male in the flock he will do this but if there already is a grown rooster among the hens the young one will mimic the old guy quite readily. Roosters use crowing to communicate and the two of them will voice their concerns back and forth all day.
A male chicken is called a rooster. You can tell if it is a rooster or not once they are 4-6 months old. When they get to that age they will 1. Start to crow. 2. Grow spurs. ( Things on the back of their legs) and 3. Grow a comb.
This is actually not such strange behavior. If there is no rooster among the flock the dominant hen will often take the position of guardian of the flock and exhibit much of the role of a rooster. In some cases where the rooster is timid and not up to the job, a dominant hen will take over.

You can tell if you have a rooster by the size and color of its comb and wattles, the presence of long, pointed saddle and hackle feathers, behavioral cues like crowing, and mating behavior towards hens. Checking for spurs on its legs can also help determine if it's a rooster.
A cockerel will usually start to practice crowing at about 5 months old or sooner, especially if the alpha rooster is vocal. The young roosters often mimic the boss bird and answer to his calls.
