    Barred rock-Jack or Jackie?

    I hope he is not. The known pullet seems to be more dominate than the questionable chick (one pictured above).

    Barred rock-Jack or Jackie?

    The bad experience was from a RIR. I did do my research before choosing a breed and Barred rocks seemed to be a good fit for our family. We are also getting two Buff orphingtons and two black Austrolops Wednesday for our boys to raise for 4H.Thanks agian for your help.

    Barred rock-Jack or Jackie?

    . Good afternoon. Our barred rocks will be 1 month old in two days. We bought them a couple of days old from the local feed store as pullets but as everyone knows sexing at hatching is not always accurate. I have read multiple post from this forum trying to figure out the sex of this particular...
