Are these three pullets?

Pullet.

First I was gonna say pullet. But it’s only 12 weeks. And with closer inspection I believe I see male saddles.

Too grainy for me to see. I was going off of the dark wash on the legs and the smaller comb.

OP, since this bird is only 12 weeks, could you post updated pics in 2 more weeks?

Sure. And here’s what “she” looked like at 6 weeks.... the comb is much more red than our other barred rock that was the same age

Oh that looks like a cockerel.

I'll take your word on the saddles, Emma.

My apologies... hubs just told me barred rock will be 15 weeks tomorrow. Does that mean pullet?

at least the first 3 look like pullets, not sure about the barred rock....

15 weeks seems more likely lol.

I can see the feathers Emma pointed out, but I can't see them well enough to know if they are saddles or split feathers.

That 6 week old pic looks like a cockerel. I still think the recent pic looks like a pullet. By 15 weeks I'd expect more obvious saddles and a larger comb for a cockerel. However, some just develop slowly. I still think updated pics in 2 or 3 weeks would be helpful.
