I am pretty sure this is a male but all the posts I read are about a Barred Rock hen and a RIR rooster.
This little one was born today from a Barred Rock mamma and an Ameraucana Daddy. Funny part is a Buff Orpington blooded on it! It's my first time having an egg from the beginning to hatch. We started this adventure 4th of July weekend of 2021. I am so worried it's a male and already have 2 Ameracana roosters. Please help!

Yup, should be a boy. Pretty sure that cross results in barred males and females without barring. The Ameraucana dad wasn't barred, right?

@MysteryChicken Care to chime in, in case I am mistaken?

Barred Hen X Any colored solid rooster = Barred males(Headspot at hatch), & solid females(No headspot/not barred)
