Is this a Rooster?

[kathtus]

I'm just wondering of this is a rooster. This is my 3 month old Buff Orpington. He/she DOES Flap it's wings sometimes out of nowhere. The back wings extend longer than its body it seems.... what do you think?

Looks like a pullet to me.

Can you get a closer side view of the rooster in good light? Hackle and saddle feathers are what I'm looking at/for. My BO were really hard to tell if female/male for several months. But nothing I can see so far says "male" to me.

Looks like a pullet to me, also.

looks like a pullet but a closer view of the hackle and saddle feathers would help

I am fairly certain I can see male saddle feathers coming in.
Also for three months those comb and wattles seem rather large, so I am going with cockerel for now.
But better photos are needed!

Leaning towards cockerel. It has a larger comb than both my buff Orpington pullets

See how helpful we all are?

Buff Orpingtons, and Orpingtons in general are the hardest to sex, in my opinion, unless you have a lot more experience with them than I do. Until the male specific feathering shows up, that's when I'm sure.
