7 Week Old Lavender Orpingtons Lots of Pictures!

When did the comb start to change color... This is my first attempt at Lavender Orps and I have NO CLUE!!!! With my Marans and my bantam cochin the combs started getting red at 3ish weeks.... so these Orps are SLOW!!! or all girls and well there is just no way given my knack for hatching boys :)
Here is my Lavender Orph. He was born in March of this year. He crowed a few days ago for the first time. The comb changed colors about middle of April. Then I noticed a tail feather curlling up!

I have 3 lav orps and would love to know what you found out about yours? Did you get all pullets? Posts pics of them now if you can. Trying to figure out what mine are....they are 4 weeks. One is starting to turn red but other than that, they all look the same.
