hello I have a barred rock it is 13 weeks old and I can't tell if it's a hen or a roo the tail feathers curve alittle and the hackles are kinda pointy not much and it seems to have little saddle feathers but the comb in not red at all!! very very little wattle development and the face isn't red at all I'll post a pic

If she is a PURE barred rock, then girl for sure. Male barred rocks have two barring genes while females only have one, so boys have more white than black and girls have more black than white. However, if she is not a pure breed, then this rule doesn't apply.
