You may have to wait a bit to find out. Breed standard says strawberry/cushion comb and very small wattles. Neither of those things are going too make sexing easy. The feather coloring isn't going to be much help either. Other than crowing, you are probably going to have to wait for the appearance of male saddle feathers, usually around 12 weeks. You can lift up the feathers along the lower back and see if any are developing. Are the combs red or peach colored?

Ah okay!! Peach I think.. Feathers look rounded rather than arrow head shaped . Fingers crossed !! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey gals and guys!!

Ive got 15- 3 1/2 weeks old chickies, 3 BR. I ordered all pullets but one of the barred rocks is quite a bit larger than the other two, more prominent stripes, and thick legs. The comb is a lot larger and turning red faster
than all the others. This chickie is the bravest and most dominant of the flock.

I got one reply on another BR specific thread but would appreciate some more opinions. Could you offer your thoughts on the sex, please?

Thank you in advance!

Hello all. I am new to backyard chickens. I bought my chickens from a farm store. The kid working told me they were Easter Eggers that would lay. But they rang up as Ameraucana. Today my husband told me that he thinks the white chicken is a Rooster. It hasn't crowed at all. Can anyone please let me know? Any input is appreciated. Thank you.
