Hello!
I bought this beauty to add to my flock. Thinking she was a "she" barred Plymouth Rock. BUT seems so much taller and bigger than my older Plymouth rocks. She also has yellow legs and my other don't. I'm nervous she might be a rooster?

Help appreciated!

Also- the place that i bought her from said they were supposed to be all black sex link. Could she be a black sex link cross?

Your young bird is a Black Sex Link cockerel. The males of this breed look much different than the pullets so there's no chance of him being one. Barred Plymouth Rocks are supposed to have yellow legs. Your hens' legs are either faded from laying or they're actually Cuckoo Marans.
