I'm pretty posative I all ready know the answer to this question but the whole family lives this chick so much we hate to see it go. But we can't have a rooster. It's a 10 week old sexlink. Any chance any one disagrees that it's a roo??

I don't think that is a sex link, and I'm not sure that it is a cockerel although that is a lot of comb development for a 10 week old. Any chance of posting a picture of a side view of the bird?

It was sold to me as a barred rock. When it was a week old it looked like one to me. Not anymore. I got ahold of the farm I got it from and they think if its not a BR than it could be a sexlink. So I'm not sure.
 
That's a lot of red 'leakage' in the hackles for a sex link cockerel. I don't see any sign of pointy hackle and saddle feathers in either picture, but the side view is not good. If there is any way that bird is more than 10 weeks old, I would lean even more towards it being a pullet.
 
It is possible that it may be a bit older. It would be great if your right. Thanks. Ill look for another pic quick
 
Could it be a barred crossed with a GLW? This bird has the same look about the face as my GLW. It might explain the color leakage too.
