8 week old Orpingtons - Rooster/Pullet?

[kiwichick_]

Hi there,
I’m stuck on the sex of my Orpington chicks. They are currently 8 weeks old. I’m hopeful that 1 and 2 are pullets and I’m fairly certain number 3 is a rooster. However I’ve also been wondering if all three are roosters due to the size and colour of the combs and wattles.
They have me stumped.

Thanks in advance!

I think you’re right. I’ll give them a few more weeks. Maybe one will surprise me

One looks like a pullet to me. 3 is definitely looking like a cockerel, and 2 is as well.

I am sorry to say that they are all looking like Roos to me.

All Orpingtons are cockerels

Thanks for your reply, I think I will just have to wait for a crow/egg!

These guys/gals (the Orpingtons in the photo) still have me stumped. They’re 12 weeks old tomorrow, one I’m fairly sure is a rooster. The other two I’m not convinced
