Dominique or Barred rock?

[joebwe25]

I know the two breads are similar and so it makes me wonder -
Is she a barred rock like they said she is?
Here is a pic -

What do you think?

More pics on the way!

I thought barred rock had black down their legs. I could be wrong...

Looks just like my barred rock.no black on her legs.......

My barred rocks all have a grayish-black color down the front of their legs. But maybe some don't, like okiechick's. I'm not sure. But she is pretty!

I looked at some pics on Google, and the Dominiques do not have black down their legs and it looks like they have rose combs.
The barred Rocks have black down their legs, and have single combs.

Hope this helps!

I have Doms, but one does NOT have a rose comb. Their legs do look darker than the girl in your picture.

my plymouth barred rocks look more striped. your lines don't seem all the way across. but i'm no expert.

Are the legs whitish or more yellow I can't tell from your photo.

I posted photos of my barred rock and cuckoo maran yesterday (who also look very much alike).

You can read this for the differences between dominiques and barred rocks (this is Cyn's usually linkage for identification)

If the legs are white I have to say she is a cuckoo maran.

If the legs are yellow I say barred rock.

Having a single comb and white legs, I am going to say cuckoo maran. Barred rocks should have single comb and yellow legs. Doms have a rose comb and not sure what color legs.

I have barred and a dominique and first thing I thought when I saw the pic is that i thought it must be a cucko maran.
