Both are indeed male.
Where did you buy them?

Thank you. I needed backup. Seems like I’m needing in more these days.

We hatched them ourselves, based in Northumberland. These were the only two Buff eggs we had unfortunately

Sad odds. Would you consider rehoming one and buying a BO hen?

That makes sense. Sorry you got the short end of the stick in terms of luck.

You and your BO obsession.

I’m a member of local poultry FB group so hopefully some one one there will rehome them. I have a beautiful Barnevelder that is also a cockerel too so I’m really not having much luck!

I agree you have a young male. Good luck and have fun...
This is a young male.

These are hens at a show.

Young male

Females with chicks. I don't know why but this was her favorite spot.

Whoop! Someone else with a 'BO obsession'.
Twin souls.

Years ago I raised BO's for our local 4H kids to raise and show.
