Hey Everyone! I’ve got four wonderful Lavender Orpingtons, they’re 12 weeks old, and they’re all supposed to be Pullets. I just want to make sure that they are… Number 1 seems a lil suspicious to me but I’m completely novice in all of this so I could be wrong.
They all have very docile demeanors, however they all seem to rally to protect #2 whom is my smallest baby.

They all look like Pullets to me. In my experiences the lavender can have bigger and earlier comb development than the other colors of Orpingtons.
 
Y’all are music to my ears! They have been such an amazing set of birds. As little chicks they were sooo contradicting to sex based on the traditional sexing means. This is sooo elating to be verified!
