I have 2 BLR Wyandottes and I would love input because they do not look like these pictures at all! They are feathering SO much slower than the chicks that hatched the same day. Different breeds so maybe that’s a factor, but do I have 2 cockerels, and are they even BLR Wyandottes?

They look more like gold laced.
 
Pullet or Rooster? This is my first Blue Laced Red Wyandotte that I have ever had. Do the Wyandottes tend to feather slowly in both pullets and cockerels? This one is 4 weeks old and does not have very many feathers or much of a comb or waddle. If anyone has a photo that I can compare mine to around this age that would be great!

You should start your own post, no confusion although thinking @oldhenlikesdogs maybe right.
 
My BLRW at 4 weeks. So absolutely adorable. I want a girl, but the slow feathering, wing shape and stumpy bum feel boyish.
