Silkie barred rock mix boy or girl?

[Mpirgou]

I have an 18 week old chicken that I hatched and I cannot tell if it’s a boy or girl. It hasn’t crowed and it’s not aggressive towards other hens but it hasnt squatted either. Any input is appreciated!

Beautiful little boy.

Pullet.
Which parent was the Barred Rock, and were both parents pure?

 

[Pretty Birds]

It looks like a pullet to me.

If the barred rock was the mom and the silkie was the dad, it’s most likely sex link. What color is silkie, if it’s the rooster?

With that futhers type only one think can be, pullet!

 

[LadiesAndJane]

Can also be sex linked by shank/skin color. If silkie is dad and mom was barred rock, then pullets will have dark skin/shanks and cockerels will have yellow skin/shanks.
Edited to say that the opposite would be true as well!

Looks like a pullet to me. Which one of the parents was the barred rock?

Forgive me for being a microscope, but I do see a barred cockerel in the background.
