Sexing rescued juvenile Barred Rock

[JessChook]

Can anyone offer help. Here is a link to a video showing this juvenile I rescued from a local park (in a cold region). The video us useful for feather definition. Most of the indicators I see point to pullet but the tail feathers look like sickles.

This has to be one of the sweetest and best socialized chicks I've ever encountered and because of that Im not sure I can integrate it with my flock. Additionally we arent allowed roosters. Im going to spend time trying to find a good home for it. So, any help in sexing is appreciated.

I’m no expert but the pale comb makes me think pullet

I'm loving that you're all saying pullet! Her long tail feathers are very droopy though, but Ill take it for now. Thanks!

I would be shocked if cockerel. Single bar, small pale comb, dark splotches on legs.

Agreed

What makes you think pullet over cockerel? What does "single bar" mean? Thanks! Ive only had chickens for a couple of years.

Males get two copies of the barring gene and be double barred making them look more gray. Females get one copy giving them a dark look.
