Not Sure if You've Got a Pullet or a Cockerel? Click here! thread 3

[Greenthumb83]

Hello everyone!
I have a few buff Orpingtons at 10 weeks old that I would like to know what gender they are. I have a roo the same age/breed that is already crowing. Are these young cockerals or are they pullets? Thank you in advance!

I can take other pictures if you need them. I have another one that looks just like these, but they move so fast I couldn't take a picture very well

Those are cockerels.

That is 100% a cockerel.

At what age can you guys tell with Orpingtons?

Thank you so much for your help!

Chick #2 and #3 look like cockerels, I think #1 also maybe one but for some reason I feel like it isn't :/. (most likely is cockerel though due to growth of comb/wattles for that age)

Thanks Chicken Girl1. So I may have 3 cockerels on my hands Thank you for the explanation of why you think he is a cock too!

Can someone help with these? 1-6 are the ones in question. I dont know the breed since they came out of a straight run bin. I do know that some combs and waddles arent as bright as say the blacks ones. They were bought right around april 13th, 2016, at TSC. Thanks for your help
