Barred Rock ? Grey feet?

[Albanese07]

I bought a chick that's supposed to be a barred rock but she has grey feet? Could she be a barred rock or more likely another breed? I bought her from a local feed store. She's about 6 weeks old .

When they are chicks, they start off with a black wash over their legs, as they get older (if they truly are Rocks) they will loose the wash and become more yellow. Cockerels generally loose the wash earlier than the pullets as well.

Thank you! I guess it is good she still has the black wash, praying she is a she !

Don't worry about the black coloration on the legs. I got three barred rock chicks for Christmas. They had similar spots on their heads, but I could tell them apart because one had a lot of black wash on both legs, the second had a little less, and the third had wash on one leg and none on the other. They're all healthy three-month-old barred rock hens today.
