What gender are these Blue Plymouth Rocks?

Hello everyone,

I recently purchased 2 chicks from a local feed store. The chicks were labeled as “Blue Plymouth Rock Chicks”. The chicks are about 3 weeks old. The chicks were also labeled pullets but I know how accurate that can be. These are the 2 chicks. I’m almost positive one is a rooster and one is a hen but I wanted a second opinion or a few opinions if possible.

You have a pair. These are a blue-sexlinked crossbreed. The males have a headspot and are barred. In the future, pick chicks without the headspot to avoid males!

Welcome to BYC!

If "breed" is accurate.. they're a sex linked hybrid.. and males are barred.

I don't or can't see the head spot the other poster mentions. or barring on the wings.

Barring and head spot:

It's a bit more subtle with blue sexlinks because of single barring copy and blue gene!

Whoa, that IS subtle!

Hi! I'm wondering if both turned out to be roos or hens? I have one "Sapphire gem" that looks like your lighter one, especially if the tiny tail aspect at 3 weeks. They were labeled pullets

I would like to know also. The two I have are very similar to these two
