Buff Orps & Barred Rocks, pullets or roos

[stevin]

these pics were taken a week ago, they are now 8 weeks old.
i'm pretty sure the 3 barred rocks are all pullets, but can anyone confirm?
i'm not sure about the 3 buff orps, i have a feelin that one may be a roo.
if anyone has any comments on the quality of them please speak up.
i have no idea where they came from, these were a unexpected gift from the father-inlaw....

Your barred rocks ARE pullets!!! Sorry, can't help you on the Orps as it would only be a guess on my part

To me they all look like pullets but one of the Barred Rocks looks rooish..

 

[stevin]

nice!!!!!
i was really hoping for no roosters, but a possible 1 out of 6 isn't bad....
any other opinions?

thanx

I think you might have one BO roo and the other 5 are pullets.

I think you may have lucked out and have ALL PULLETS!
( You may have a few roos in there some where though!

)

It is my understanding that pullet BR will have a dark line down the front of their legs.

I'm pretty sure all of those are pullets (for sure the orps but a bit shaky on the barred rocks), how could you get that lucky!

Wait I shouldn't say that...

i hope so.....!!!
i have a dozen or so roosters that i will be getting rid of soon. i will be keeping one....
so hopefully all 6 are pullets or a possible roo in the mix.
i might have to take some solo pictures of each chick in order to get a clear overall view of each one.

i appreciate all the replies! please continue!
and also, please comment on the quality. i know they are not SQ but i would like to be close to what the breed standard should be.
please you won't hurt my feelings, lay it on me....

Definetly all your Barred Rocks are pullets!
