At how many weeks old should I be able to tell for sure?

Looks like a pullet. It has dark feathers coming in and a dark wash down the legs. Roosters are lighter in color and don't have the dark on their legs, typically.

Yep... barred rock

Is it true that the roos don't get the dark wash down their legs? I thought all BR got the wash but in the hens it's a lot darker. I have 3 BR that all have the dark wash but one of them is getting a mighty big and pink comb [much more than the other 2, they are all the same age]
