First time chick raiser! I got worried about sex when I read a few things on this thread. These are the feet on my three, 3-week-old barred rock chicks. All three sets of feet look like this...I think I've got girls? We were supposed to get females from the hatchery... Two of them have had lots of light colored plumage on their chests, one is almost completely dark on "her" chest. The darkest chick has a narrow white spot on her head, the other two have larger, broader white spots on their heads! I can post pictures of all of them if it will help! Thanks in advance!

The white chested ones are not purebred BR's.

Good morning! We recently started our own little flock of 4 chicks (2 golden comets, 1 blk sexlink and a barred rock). They are 9 days old today. Can you please have a look and tell me the sex of this one? Feet are so light, but wing feathers seem dark? Very confusing...
Thanks!

It is to young but in my opinion it is a little cockerel

The headspot is faded & not tight around the edges, so it could be a male. You'll know for sure in a few weeks.
