A Rhode Island Red rooster and Barred Rock hen makes a BSL. So.... that's probably where he gets his barring.

While I'm thinking, is there any Barred Cochin?
I'm going to keep striking off the barred gene until I get it

There is, but that isn't it. You are getting warmer though.

BSL = Black Sex Link

As for his bulk and feathered legs. I am not giving up on the possibility of Cochin until I am told otherwise!

There is one clue that is staring you in the face that you are missing.

Black Cochin? I really hope I'm not being naive...

Just cause I don't want to make another post:
Black Cochin x Rhode Island Red/Barred Rock

Yup, the roo in my picture is his daddy.

Now for mom. How a BSL is made, you put a solid roo (not dominant white) over a barred hen. Mom is a barred hybrid. You can see all her colors in him.

Okay, I just have ask. Are Barred Rocks hybrids? I didn't think they are, but the internet is saying they are.

 

[Redhead Rae]

They aren't, they are usually used in making most hatchery Black Sex links though. However, I have no Barred Rocks.

Think about the comb.
