[Sparky43]

After my st batch of chickens, (5 roos and one hen) from TSC i went to a real breeder for 6 pullets. one is definetely a roo, and i switch on thie one every day. What do you think?

How old are they? I'm thinking pullet on this one, but you may have to wait a bit longer to be sure and I'm no expert!

By the time BR are this size there is no mistaking the rooster. So this is a pullet.

Do you mean lighter? Cause a barred rock rooster shouldn't have any red..........
