Can anyone sex this barred rock? I've never had this breed before.

Sorry, I know the pictures are a little fuzzy. It's hard getting a good picture cause its a fast little buggar! And if you don't mind ... please let me know what clues you found that determined your vote. Thanks! S

I think male, but what age is it, just to be sure.

 

[jujub41482]

I think it's 3 weeks. The feed store I got it from kept all the chicks mixed up with other breeds and ages so they weren't much help there.

looking like a male but wait a few weeks to be sure

Ya, looks like a male, unless it is just the picture that is a lot of comb to be a female at that age, big white spot, and light stripes.

 

[BantamFan4Life]

That is a cockerel.

Here's a few more pics taken lately...

 

[jujub41482]

Here's a new picture, it's been one month now. Is the consensus still for a male?

 

[roostersandhens]

I am thinking Pullet but I could be wrong, the first pic made him look like a roo but now I vote pullet!

I have a barred rock, she followed those exact same stages. I could almost put money on it that its a pullet.
