Help! What sex is my barred rock?

[CrazyChickLady7]

Mine is 3 weeks old and was fearing roo because of the tail and large, pink comb and the pink under the beak.
Ive been told hen because the color is darker and no bold white bars.

Im still nervous though...

It does have a fairly large comb but i could b wrong

I thought so too, especially since my EE is exactly the same age and that comb is nearly invisible.

EE, ideally, have pea combs. They stay almost non-existent until point of lay.

Looks like a normal sized barred rock pullet comb to me.

She looks just like mine did at that age.

Thank you. I'm new to this, they are my first ones ever. Still learning. Having so much fun too!

Awesome! Other than my own observations so far, through photos of others, I don't really know what "normal size" is lol. All the input is really making me feel better. I'd love a rooster but prefer not.
