Barred Rock cockerel?

[HumbleAmerican]

Is this a Barred Rock? Or I’m an idiot and it’s something entirely different)

My RIR took a swim and looking for a replacement. Barred Rock would cover the hens well too (5 each RIR and Barred Rock)

Okay quality BR cockerel.

HE looks like he might only be single barred, while in the barred variety of Plymouth rocks the males should be double barred.

@cherrynberry what do you see, single or double barring?

 

[HumbleAmerican]

Wouldn’t this be considered single barred?

He looks double Barred.

His barring is just slightly more crisp then a Hatchery Quality Barred Rock.

Thanks everyone.

Thinking he’s going to enjoy my folks’ place for a bit (6weeks or so)

He may come live with me.

I agree with Mystery Chicken. He looks double barred to me.
