Barred Rock Roo?

[Saamigo]

Well, it's been a few weeks so I thought I would post a couple more pics. Here is our barred rock. Does he still look like a roo? He doesn't act like one. He is about 7-8 weeks old now. No crowing and very, very sweet, even with the JG roo I know I have. He does crow, the JG I mean
Thanks.

Nope, not a roo. She looks just like our Auntie.

looks like a pullet to me.

That would be so great

We just love this one. My husband picks it up all the time and she doesn't even try to get away. She is more like a pet

Thanks so much. When she was younger she was thought to be a roo

I am thrilled.
Thanks again

Sorry HE IS A BOY.Roosters start to crow at 4 mo of age.His comb is way too big for girl of his age .With the shiney feathers alredy growing on his wings there is not doubt

You all don't see those skinny iridescent feathers in the hackles? That is a BR cockerel, folks. The color, the hackles, the comb, all scream Barred Rock ROO. Trust me. Have had quite a few of those come through here over the last few years. Big boy. 100% certain.

I have to agree with all those that say COCKEREL!

Definitely a boy! A comb like that on a 7-8wk old bird definitely says rooster, let alone the hackles and overall coloring.

Oh well, thanks everybody. I just hope he stays sweet. We really like him
