Sexing Barred Rocks

One last close up

rosinsk1772, the one on the right in the last photo is definitely much pinker in the face & comb. At three months though, they're both pullets.

I appreciate it! Now since they seem a lot smaller then my other BRS could they be bantams?

I think they'd have to be significantly smaller if they're bantams. Do you have a photo of them next to your larger ones?

They are working on the pecking order so the only close ups is when their face is in the dirt or when the other BRS are basically standing on top of them like King Kong

I can hardly get a clear photo of any of mine alone!

So here are my little barred rocks, but I am not good at sexing birds. They are about 8-9 weeks old. Does anyone want to take a guess as too who is a cockerel and who is a pullet?

TurnipTruck, are those 8 different birds? Just want to be sure before answering.

They are different birds.
