barred rock

    Do you think my barred rocks are roosters?

    These are my barred rock chickens. They are about 13 weeks old. I’m beginning to think they are roosters now because of the shiny feathers and green ones starting on tails.

    What is this little dude?

    I’m 99% sure this is a cockerel. He’s about 5 weeks old now. At first I thought barred rock, but definitely doesn’t look like any barred rock I’ve seen before. Any ideas?

    ‘Twin’ Barred Rocks?

    I have a pair of barred rocks I bought as chicks from a woman who had a small flock of them. They were certainly from the same father, and I think they were from the same mother too. These sisters look identical, and the only way I can tell them apart is the yellow leg band I put on the one...

    Does anyone know what chicks would look like from a barred rock rooster and isa brown hen? Or a barred rock rooster with an English jubilee Orpington hen? I’m learning to hatch my own eggs so am hatching from what I currently have.

    A great beginner breed! The chicken hiding under the other is not a Barred Rock.
