Just wanted to see what y'all had to say about your barred rock chicks. Mine is about 4 (?) weeks old and it's feathers are coming in more like a black australorp than a barred rock (that is, the wing feathers are mostly all black and lack the classic "striping" that the barred rocks have). I will post pics later. Maybe Tractor Supply labeled the wrong chick bin :(

It should have the barring. Here's mine at 5 weeks.
