Uhhhh...... Don't Plymouth Rock - Barred chicks have the same white spot on their heads? I have one of each - a Cuckoo Marans 20 wks old that started that way, and I just bought a Barred Rock chick that has that same white spot on its head. It made me wonder if the bin o' chicks had been mis-labeled.
The females will also tend to have a dark sriped down the front of their shanks and their overall color will be more black, while the males will tend to be more ashy. And the white spot thing, too.
Just like Barred Rock peeps, but without the yellow shanks and feet.
