I got a barred rock pullet who is now 6 wks old, and, out of 4 chicks that i ordered from my pet chicken, 2 are probably roosters, so i just don't know if she is a pullet or not, can you guys tell me what you think, I think she is a pullet but i have had so many mix ups I just can't believe that.

Pullet, and she is at the same age as my barred Pullet. My buddy from the same run got a roo, and the comb would be over 2x as tall and wattles would be coming out.
 
Pullet!

If you had 50% mis-sexed chickens, will Mypetchicken give you a refund, or replacement? Other hatcheries often guarantee 90% correct sexing, but perhaps since mypetchicken sells small amounts of chicks, where one mis-sexed chick could bring the whole order of 3 chicks to only a 77% correct sexing, they aren't able to offer that guarantee. But it might be worth looking into, if you would want to.
 
Here are a few pictures of my Barred Rock rooster at about 6 weeks of age. He is very close to the age of your bird (Which I strongly believe is a pullet) so hopefully it helps for you to compare your bird to mine!
