There’s more white in the front is that normal ? I’m new to chickens so idk what to look for

some breeds, once the chicks are a little older, you can tell by their feather patterns. this chick's comb is small and pale, that means its a girl. If its comb was larger and brighter, it would be a boy.
 
I agree that it looks to me like you've got a girl based on the headspot and the dark feathering. But are you sure she's a barred rock? It might be the lighting in the photos, but those legs look pink (cuckoo marans) rather than yellow (barred rock) to me. Either way, I think you've got eggs in your future.
