Sight Sexing Barred Plymouth Rock Chicks at Hatch

[Mosey2003]

Being male barred over ISA I would wait until you can tell by the comb instead.

Any guesses on this little guy? Two pics are current at 4 weeks and the other pic is when it was about a day old. I’m not sure on the breed because it came from a friends barnyard mix but I’m guessing Barred Rock. I feel like the head spot looks like a hen but the legs look more like a roo. Thanks!

The barring looks like a pullet right now

It is always a guess. I hate to get too attached to this chick and have to get rid of it. It must be a roo I have never seen a more lovable chick. SMH

It is quite the favorite of the brooder. I have 11 other chicks cuter, fluffier but this one begs to come out and charm the grandkids.
