Partridge Plymouth Rock Question

[RobertaD1]

I am looking to get some Partridge Plymouth Rocks for my flock.
As Im looking to NOT add anymore roosters to my flock... I wondered if this breed is auto sexing?
I haven't found a definite answer to this question anywhere.

I don't know about Partridge, but Barred Rocks seem to have less silver/ grey scales on the male's legs. I don't know if this is a standard or just a variation.

It isn’t autosexing

But you can tell the sexes apart early on…

Thank you! I may put it off for this round.... JUST in case.
Appreciate the quick answers!!!!

They're Great birds, I got mine for Mt Healthy, big ladies.
I think they might be sexually dimorphic, meaning the males have different adult plumage.

Partridge Rocks are sold at Meyer Hatchery. Haven't ordered any yet.
