All Barred Rocks, good to know.

Can you get pictures of each of them away from the light?

I can try a bit later. The other dark ones are silver laced Wyandotte’s. (5 each)

Okay, sounds good. Barred Rocks are quite easy to sex.

Wyandottes have to wait awhile before being able to tell gender.

It's a boy. The Barred Rock boy's will have that white dot on it's head. It look's that you have more then one boy in that batch.

False, lol! Females have a white dot too.

 

[TheOddOneOut]

That is a girl.

Update, pretty sure that one is a hen though there is one other maybe in the barred rock bunch and one likely roo of the Rhode Island reds.

Back corner RIR is the same age as the other reds but comb has gotten larger and turned pink in the last couple days and I watched a lot of head up chest bumping to keep others out of the way at bedtime
