Hi everyone. I just purchased my very first chicks. Being a novice, I went to a place that sexes out their chicks. I thought I got 3 hens, but wonder if there is a rooster in the batch. I have one white leghorn, one buff orpington, and one barred rock. As I researched these breeds for their eggs, I learned a little about the breeds as well. From what I read, sexlink variety roosters have the white spot on their head and barred wings as chicks. My black barred rock has this same feature, but the hens will be barred too. So how can I tell if this barred rock is a female or male? I'm soooooo confused. Can you help me? My new chicks are below.
