Hi there!
I'm new to raising chickens and am LOVING every minute of it so far! I ordered 7 chicks from "My Pet Chicken" about 6 weeks ago, and am wondering if the one barred rock I got is going to be a roo or a hen....this one has stumpy tail feathers while the others are much longer and I heard that might be a sign of being male....also, there was a suspicious, large white dot atop this little one's head upon arrival....
