Hi guys posted this little fella a while back and y’all said barnvelder. He’s around ten weeks now. I keep hoping he will turn into a welsummer what say you?

Actually he does look like a welsummer Cockerel. Definitely not a barnie

Yep Wellie. Hard to tell from the picture, but if the chest turns black it's a rooster.

Oh there's no question on that one at 10 weeks.

It is certainly a Welsummer cockerel. What did it look like as a chick for people to say Barnevelder?

Yes. Undoubtedly from that post it was 100% a Welsummer cockerel. Sorry you were doubting the little guy for that many weeks.
