I was told rooster is it a roo or pullet?

The mom is a barred rock, with the choice of about 4-5 possible roosters as the possible father which were barnyard mix, Easter egger, Rhode Island Red, splash laced red Wyandotte, and white leghorn

Is there one rooster over the others you were hoping to be the baby daddy, or, as she's developing, do you have a guess as to pop's ID?

Not necessarily hoping anyone in particular there all sweet and good boys, someone on here thinks based on her looks the white leghorn is the father

It does look like a Pullet, which is confusing because if only the Mother is Barred then only the Male Offspring should be Barred.

But what if the was the EE? They have so many genetic possibilities who knows what he might've passed along to his offspring. Not saying just musing out loud.

What do her chicken legs look like?

ETA also who knows what went into the BYM rooster. They have even more genetic trait possibilities for nature to choose from.

Whomever he is, he makes pretty babies.

I believe your bird is a pullet. Those familiar with barred breeding would assume having that much white would make it male. Seeing it as a younger bird this definitely could have lead to those knowledgeable about breeding saying it is a male.
The mixed breeding has affected the coloring. I'm not sure if genes are causing black to turn white or something else, but it has more white than a pure barred female would have.

Possible daddies besides the splash Wyandotte, and RIR rooster, and leghorn

Okay that’s really strange. You never had any barred roosters or cockerels? Olive Eggers even?

Nope i had one that looked like a bendifilder i think that’s the name but not sure if that could have been the daddy with how long ago i parted with him

I vote for the third one - which I assume is the EE because of his green legs.

ETA your baby girl looks a lot like the one on the left in the background (same pic) with it's head down eating. Are they related?

I bought her from tractor supply as an Olive egger but i believe she’s actually a cream legbar do u think it possibly be her baby?

Okay this checks. He would carry the barring gene. They can be fertilized for very long before the eggs are laid
