Need help sexing and telling what breed i have.

[Wallygator]

I got this chick about a month ago when he/she was a week old. I want help on telling what breed she/he is and what sex it is. I was told it was a barred rock but after looking up pictures I had my doubts that this was a barred rock.

you have an Appenzeller Spitzhauben. They are very sweet. We have one and it lets my 4yr old carry it.

I agree with acb950. As for hen or roo, I am not great at this with breeds like this but I don't see any reddening waddles or crop so I am going to go with hen. She is a very pretty little thing though!!

Thanks for info . Wow rare breed I'm assuming any idea if it's a pullet or cockerel and do you know their laying habits. Like color size and quantity/ amount

I got word from the owner of these chicks before I got them and they said it was a Polish top hat

I had a black crested, white polish that looked just like this. It was from Ideal and it was definitely a polish.

Do you know what sex this chick might be?

Can you get a good pic of the comb area?

 

[Wallygator]

sure here, what are some ways of telling from this?

Boys get red and have horn-like combs...my pullet never got a comb at all...that, looks like a roo to me.
