Help! Rooster or hen?

[Eric Monhollen]

Hi, I have 2 Mille Fleur and 1 Porcelan bantam. I am having difficulty determining if they are roosters or hens. Can anyone help me by looking at some pictures? They are 8 weeks old today. I am new to the site so i dont know if I uploaded the pictures correctly. Thank you in advance.

This is the porcelain.

Welcome to BYC. Generally profile shots are best for gender identification. If all birds pictured are 8 weeks old, they are cockerels.

Mills Fleur 1 has more black on its head than the other one.

All 3?

Agree with Sourland, too much, too red combs at such an early age. Sorry

All roosters.

Thank you everyone for the input. I ordered 4 mille fleur d'uccles and 2 porcelain from Meyer hatchery in Ohio. All 6 are roosters. I guess I will have to order 10 more and see if I can get some hens. Is it common to get that many roosters from straight runs?

My luck is that straight run is mostly males. Hope you get some pullets!
