Here are the two of them next to each other. As you can see one has cooper all over and the other does not.

They look to both be roosters.

Ugh I really hope not since they are the only two I have. They look so different in person I don't know how to tell for sure.

How old are they? Those are big combs. Pullets don't usually develop combs that large until right before they begin to lay at 4-8 months of age.

They are about 10 weeks.

Here's my blue copper maran pullet last year at 4 months for comparison for you. Yours are roosters.

She is in front on the left.

Anyone know if the OP ended up with a hen or rooster?
