When my Barnies are dark they look like the ones they sell as organic dark brown in the store.

I will take 2 barnie pullets if you are able to sex them that young. We have been wanting some barnies for our rainbow flock for a while. We got acouple eggs when I got my maran eggs and only one hatched, of course it was a roo.

Interesting. I would say roo based on the comb and pullet based on the tail length and rate of feathering and the dark feet. It may have nice dark eggs but as a breed quality it will be very mossey. See the rust coming out on the wings already. Cute bird though

Post another picture her in a week
