Silver Pencilled Plymouth Rock

[Windy Bay Farm]

Howdy ya'll ! Wondering if someone can tell me if it's possible to sex 3 week old SPPR chicks ? I have a few that are dark colored with the penciling on their feathers and a few that are very light in color. Can you determine sex from the coloring ?

Yes you can. Post some pics on Plymouth Rock Thread- Part Deux.

Hello! Could this 16 week old pullet be a SPPR? I have never seen one like her, and we had no idea if she was some sort of EE cross b/c of the legs and strange markings. Then , I saw a pic of a SPPR and there's seems to be a big resemblance - at least to a noobie chicken person like myself. Thanks so much!

Yes, she looks like a silver penciled rock. Looks like a single comb too.
