Barred Rock hen or roo?

Someone saw my Barred Rock online last night and said she is actually a he! Please tell me that’s not true. I may actually cry! We can’t have Roos

Looks like a pullet to me for 18 weeks, light colored pullet.

I hope so! None of our girls have crowed. I don’t see saddle feathers. She’s my favorite so I really hope not a roo

That's a pullet. Male BR have double barring, yours does not. If she was male you would also notice male specific feathers growing in and a much bigger comb.

Thank you all! I was so sad all night. She’s mine and my daughters favorite!

I’m so obsessed with her! That’s why I was going to be so sad if she was a roo

She reminds me of mine a week or so before she started to lay.
