[Mourningdove]

Hi again, This is the little barred rock chick I mentioned, Please understand I am no good at taking pics of a camera shy baby lol...
This little chick is the only barred rock baby I have and it's name is miracle because it had trouble getting here. I woulld like to know if it's a he or she! Thanks!!!

Well, the pics are really, really fuzzy. In those, it looks more like a girl, but we really need clear pics in natural light to say for sure.

I second that

I am hoping that it is a girl! When it was hatched we were on day 23 and it couldn't pip the shell, so I hatched it and it made it! I will try to get better pics, the lighting in my house is terrible. So does the black on the front of the legs look girlish to you? Oh I forgot to mention it had a good length of tail too, must get better pics

If you can take it outside tomorrow and get a pic in natural light, but not in very bright sun (glare), then maybe I could be more definite. Usually, BR pullets get very long tails way before the boys do.
