I would mark those dark chicks with nice horn beaks.

Yes the females barring....it was dark. I will try to get better pictures.Quote:
I dont see any barring on the females..?
How old are they? They look darker then most of the GFF RB. Maybe yours came from a pen at GFF with RB and standard Reds instead of production reds. Keep posting pics of them as they grow, please.

The female chicks do have barring, its cloudy here today, and the coop is under the leanto making it even darker. The pictures are dark & the barring doesn't show. I will attempt more pictures this weekend.Quote:
Barring should not be that difficult to spot.
??? What do you mean? I figure I will wait till they feather out then start separating for cull. But is there something else I should be looking for in their beak style??
We are currently doing some selective breeding, then next year we are planning on finding some nice RIR stock to work with.
