The expression on the barred rock pullet's face in the pic is like, "Huh, a turkey. I'm not a turkey!"

LOL! What's also funny is how many country folk around here who have raised chickens went along with the fact that it was a turkey! Either they didn't know or thought it was a funny game to play with me....hhaaaaa.

I look at the barring. On a rooster the barring will be darker and closer together. The tail will have pointed feathers right at the saddle area. A hen will have the barring farther apart and the over all color will be slighly deluted or lighter than a rooster. The tail feathers in the saddle area will be round at the end.
