6 week cochin cockerels?? NEW PIC ADDED

[JoJoM]

It’s the year of the Rooster at my house, apparently. Could you please confirm my suspicions on the cochins? They are 6 weeks.

How many birds are there and which are in the pictures shown? Are they large fowl Cochins or bantams?

There are just the two Cochins and I believe they are regular sized. The BSL/CCL and the CCL in the pictures are obvious cockerels!

I think the lighter one is a cockerel, but not sure of the darker one. It doesn't seem to have as much redness in the comb as the other.

The lighter one definitely has a bigger, redder comb, but the darker one's is reddening as well. I'll try to get a better picture. These ones were raised by a broody so they're not quite as friendly as others I've had!

Good deal.

Hoping this is a better picture. Really hoping one is a pullet!

I’m noticing a difference in the shape of their back feathers in this picture as well.

I think perhaps a pair but I would wait closer to eight weeks for sexing slow to mature breeds
