    4.5 week old Barred Rock... Roo or Pullet?

    Sorry for the delay, but here are pictures of my he/she (Hochi), supposedly a Barred Rock, at almost 6 months old. I guess it turns out it's a SHE after all, phew! Now if she would only start laying...

    4.5 week old Barred Rock... Roo or Pullet?

    Sorry! No updates as I'm out of town. I had my husband send a phone picture to me, but the chick looks the same with no defining feature changes. I'll post another picture when I return in August though!

    4.5 week old Barred Rock... Roo or Pullet?

    Your reasoning for a X cockerel does seem sound, I agree. In a last vain hope, I looked at my photo and then ran out to check on Hoechi's comb again... which still looks red like the photo, lol! I'll post back a photo when he/she is a bit older, so you can have a look at the 'progress' :-)...

    4.5 week old Barred Rock... Roo or Pullet?

    That is not the response I was hoping for, lol! I guess time will tell what I have?! When should I really, REALLY know what gender and breed she is? What age, I mean? Also, your 12 wk old BR has yellow legs/feet. My he/she chick has black/green legs. That's not helping her chances of...

    Also, although they just gave the ok for the use of electrical fencing in industrial areas, it is still illegal to have an electric fence in a residential area. http://email.phoenix.gov/webcms/groups/internet/@inter/@dept/@dsd/@trt/documents/web_content/dsd_trt_pdf_00753.pdf

    Her comb is my concern as well. She is SUPPOSED to be a pure bred BR, sexed. The feed store is reputable and knowledgeable, so I doubt they buy from 'shady' hatcheries. Then again, they sell Easter Eggers as Americaunas. Anyway, here is another picture of her. I feel the picture is a true...

    4.5 week old Barred Rock... Roo or Pullet?

    Thank you all for your knowledgeable opinions! Since we live in Phoenix, I was hoping "She" was going to stay a "She"! To answer the question "where did you get her from", she is a replacement , purchased from a local feed store, Western Ranchmen, for a chick we lost to a scorpion. Thanks...

    4.5 week old Barred Rock... Roo or Pullet?

    This is an almost 5 week old Barred Rock. I am concerned "She" is a "He". She has started getting her wattle sooner than the other chicks and has a more pronounced comb. HOWEVER, her coloring suggests she is a pullet. Anyone have a more educated idea as to whether this is a Roo or Pullet...
