Determine sex

[rvr350]

We got couple barred rock from Tractor Supply as pullets. They seem to be couple weeks old. I am always hesitate to sex them. Is this one a pullet? Its primary flight feather is growing in now.

Yes if its sexed pullet is 99% pullet

When you have several barred rocks, you can compare how much white they have.
Males tend to have a lot more white in their barring than females.

And of course the males start to get larger, redder combs at some point, while the females' combs stay small and pale for longer.

I see a pullet. Males generally have more white, as the above poster mentioned, than females.

Here is a picture of both chicks together. One is slightly larger in tail feather, bigger comb.

It's a bit hard to see the comb under the red light, but going by the amount of white in the barring and yellow on their heads, I think they are the same gender as each other.

I'm not sure which gender they are, just guessing that they match.

If they are 100% barred rocks, they both have female head spots.
