New Barred Rock Rooster question.

[beto510]

Hi y'all, I'm new here and new to raising chickens! I recently picked up a juvenile roo from a local rescue. I'm pretty sure he's a barred rock but he seems to be on the small side. Not sure of his age, but I'm thinking he may be a Bantam Barred Rock because of hi size. Could anyone provide some insight? Thanks!


I can't post pics from tapalk, will post later.

Welcome! He's cute. If his legs are white/pink, he's not a Plymouth Rock. Mary

Thanks, he is a looker. What color feet do plymouth rocks have? I dont know what else he could be. jeres a few more pics.

He's not a Barred Rock. With those white legs he's a Cuckoo Marans rooster.

He's a cutie!

He's barred, but he's not a Rock. He's not a Marans, either, he's too small and upright/lean built. I'm thinking something like a barred game rooster, but I'm not familiar enough with game birds to get any more specific than that, sorry.

That's not a Barred Rock. It's too slim and has a duckwing bantam shape! He's definitely barred, but like already said, not a rock. His feet aren't yellow, that also. He can't be a Cuckoo Maran because he's not fat enough. He's probably a game or bantam, if he's small.
