Are these pullets ()

[Ledgewood7]

So after a long absence of no chickens I recently bought 2 (what were supposed to be) barred rock pullets at our local feed store. Only now one is crowing

In the meantime my sister hatched a bunch of chicken eggs for her classroom’s school project and gave me 2 lavender Wyandottes when the school year ended. I’m hoping I do not have more roos! Would anyone like to guess for me? I have no idea!!

Normally combs and wattles that big and red at 2 months old means cockerel. But for some reason Wyandotte pullets can something get big, red combs and wattles at an early age, at least in the laced varieties. I am not sure if that holds true for the lavenders. But I think there is hope that one or both of these birds could be pullets and I think you are going to have to wait a few weeks longer to know for sure. Sorry I can't give you anything more definite. Hope they turn out to be girls!

Thank you. At least I have hope!

Hope you are right. I’ll post more pictures as they get older.

I think they are cockerels, but I don't know.

Every Wyandotte Ive ever had, freaked me out with their big, early comb and wattle development. I find its easier to go by stance and feather development with the Dottes.

They are doing the same to me!
