First time chick rearer... We have seven 6 day olds from Meyer. Our order included 2 female barred rocks and a meal maker. It looks like we for 3 barred rocks, but they are all developing very differently. One looks right on course to be a female BR, the other is looking a lot like a roo with grayer downy and very delayed feather development.

The third is developing at the same pace as the female, but I'm not sure she has barring? She does have white spot on head.

Any thoughts much appreciated!
 
White spot on the head means the bird has a barring gene. It looks like this chick just has down so far, it will color in barred of some sort.
