How can you tell a male from female?
 
also the wattles on the male are bigger than the female, yours might be too young to tell that way though
here is a male in the front and female in back

Mine are buckwheating already and they are only 10 weeks old. From what I heard, the males never make the buckwheat noise, so that's the best way to tell if they aren't full grown yet. So I've heard, anyways!

Yes males do not make 2 syllabe noise, but females are capable both, single sound and buckwheat noise, so one need to listen to them carefully and not to make rush judgement as for their sex.
