Barred Rock Leg/Feet Coloring

[CuteCanadianChick]

I am very new to raising chickens but I have to admit that in the past six months I have become 'over-the-top' crazy about my flock! I have four barred rock roos but I notice that one of the four have very white legs/feet compared to the other three which have the yellow with black legs/feet. i also have one barred rock hen that stands out with very white legs and feet. Any reason for this? Is it just a less prominent genetic thing just showing up? Just curious!

I'm no expert but i recall reading that white legs are marans. Pics would help.

My barred Rocks all have yellow feet with a gray wash. Sound like they could be Cuckoo Marans with the white feet. In coloring the look very similar.

Ive gotten some barred rocks with white legs, also. They were hatchery stock. Ideally they should have yellow legs, per the standard.

Yes, they should be yellow. All my BRs have yellow legs.
