I’m a first time chicken owner here!
This is Dotty, my 5.5 week old barred rock from MurrayMcmurray hatchery. I’m really hoping she’s a pullet. What do you all think?? No other barred rocks to compare her to in this flock.

I think it's a pullet!

Behaviour is probably the best way to judge if its a pullet or a roo. My bantam rooster would lunge at the other hens (even the full-grown ones!) and 'square up' at the others, too.
