I have a 1 yr old white roo currently with my barred rock bantam until I get him a girl friend I went out to feed them this evening he tried to breed with one them I would be very curious as to what those chicks would look like lol

the babies would be barred males and non barred females

They all look like hens from what I can see. I would think by now your roos if you have any would have a visible comb by now
Look at these I hope will help you, white ones if you would look the one on the left is a hen

thanks! I'm hoping for girls. I can't keep boys and my favorite chicken is a roo. he's a gorgeous silver laced polish. Im keeping him until he crows though. Might even try and keep him longer if my neighbors dont freak out. Are you silkies bearded or clean faced? I believe mine are bearded so it's hard to tell sex with no waddles.

I am thinking they are clean faced. I ordered the eggs on ebay and hatched 3 out 12 eggs with a cheap china incubator never again.. Before spring I will have a better incubator. I hatched out 5 turkeys and 10 chicken 3 of them were silkies. I have 5 Rhode Island reds one is a roo MY BABIES they are 7 months old and laying eggs like crazy, 4 barred rock bantam all hens, they are laying humming bird size eggs lol, and 5 Heinz 57 ( mixed breeds), 2 guineas and 2 Muscovy ducks my little back yard farm lol
