Barred Rock Gender

[23kthistlethwaite]

Hi everyone! I had posted about my barred rock supposedly pullet a couple weeks ago and got mixed responses on whether she was a pullet or cockerel. She is 7 weeks tomorrow and just wanted to hear your thoughts.

My guess is pullet since that’s what we bought her as. Also she doesn’t look to me to be double barred which I know is a trait that Barred Rock roosters have. That comb makes me suspicious tho.

The coloring is making me think female, but that comb is throwing me off @Overo Mare @The Moonshiner

Pullet. We ended up woth an accidental cockrel barred rock, here he is at 6-8 weeks and now (3.5 months). You can see how much whiter he is (and how red his waddles were)

Pullet for sure!

I'm actually going to slightly lean towards cockerel due to comb size

That doesn’t look like a purebred barred rock, he actually looks more like a black sex link.

He looks like a BSL cockerel
