I bought 3 Buff Orpingtons at about 15 weeks of age a month ago, so they are about 19 weeks old. I was assured they were hens, but recently in the last two weeks I have seen the rapid development of combs and wattles on 2 of my birds, as well as what I perceive to be saddle feathers.
I am a novice and not familiar with Buff Orpington development. Can anyone give me a definitive insight?

There is no crowing, and no egg laying as yet.
What do you think?
Thanks in advance!
