I bought 3 Black sex link chicks just over a month ago at Orscheln's. After reading through this forum and doing some image comparisons, I fear that Kate, my favorite of the 3 girls, is actually a roo. My only hope is that she is not a roo, but is actually a barred rock pullet that got mixed in with the BSLs...but as I have been researching that hope has been fading. I would really appreciate it if anyone could confirm my suspicions...If she is a boy, I want to get a replacement pullet asap.
Here are the girls a day or two after coming home from the store. Kate (the chick in question) is in the middle:

Kate at about 2 weeks after coming home:
And a picture of her just a couple days ago, about 4-5 weeks old by my count:
She is just so different from the other 2 girls. That red comb and the barred patterns worry me. Am I right in thinking she is a male? Is there any change she is just a barred rock pullet that got mixed in with the BSL chicks? Thanks in advance.
