supposed to have been a silver-laced wyandotte...

So I got this pullet and she was supposed to be a silver-laced. I've been trying to figure out what she is. Her barring is lighter than my barred rocks so is she a dominique? Let me know your thoughts, thanks!

My Barred Rock Rooster @ maybe 10 weeks old

Lol, oh man. Guess it was too much to hope for that I might get the breed and sex I wanted.

You should have at least got the breed Some people.. Barred rocks look totally different from SLW too! You can see mine in the background with my rooster Jagger.

Here they are all grown up

Well at least it will be a handsome roo, and your SLW is beautiful!

Looks like a barred rock to me for sure! My neighbor has 10+ BR's and their color varies to each of them -- some are very dark, others lighter.

Males are lighter than females

Oh and thank you! She's beautiful, but I prefer the barred rocks. They have a better disposition
