Which one is a barred rock?

[HomeofTheChicks]

Hi! I recently hatched a clutch of cream legbars and barred rocks. They got mixed up and now I can tell who is who. I found a small difference though. Some of them have tan feet and some have yellowish feet. Does anyone know which one id the barred and which one is the legbar?

Hello! I think that the first picture is your barred rock and the second is your legbar. Not entirely sure though, because I’ve never had legbars, although barred rocks usually have completely yellow legs I think. Do they both have white spots on the tops of their heads? Can you take a picture of each of the chicks, whole body in the frame? Thanks!

Barred rocks have yellow skin

I agree. The first chick is your BR. At least, that is the best I can see without a whole body picture.

My barred rock was nearly all black when we got her. She stayed black and developed the white barring.

Both have yellow skin and are barred but they are significantly different chicks at hatch (down pattern is chipmunk or no chipmink)..

The pictures show two chicks. One hatched out of a blue/teal egg and one hatched out of a brown egg. The lady who gave me the blue eggs said the parents were cream legbars which is how I know they are not all barred rocks. The lady that gave me them also said she didnt have any barred rocks so i know theres no possible way that they are all barred. I just know atleast 4 out of 8 are barred. But its hard because they all look the same! I appreciate the help though.

Do you mean that cream legbars also have the barred rock pattern and yellow feet?

Here is a mixture of pictures of the chicks. See what you think by the patterns!

None of those are pure Cream Legbar, as EggSighted4Life mentioned Legbars hatch with chipmunk down but all your chicks are black. At best you might have Cream Legbar cross chicks, that would also explain the pink skin instead of yellow.
