    Hello, I have three new chicks about six weeks old now. I'm not sure of the gender of this barred rock because of the comb. It's not bright, but it seems a bit big. I've only had RIRs and EEs so I'm not sure about this one.

    I agree it is a pullet. Cockerals have a lot more white on them. :thumbsup
