I hatched this baby her mother is Isa Brown and we believe the rooster was a Rhode Island Red/copper maran mix. I was thinking with color pattern that she was a she but then little bumps on back of her legs bigger then my other hen chicks. Any other way to figure out what this baby is gonna be?

You have a barnyard mix with nothing genetically to sex link. I find comb size the best gage for my barnyards. There is nothing indicating rooster yet in this chick. Those little bumps are spur buds. All chickens, even females, get a slight spur, the males simply get bigger spurs.
