Buff Orpington and blue sapphire hen or roo?

[The Easter Egger Inn]

We have a buff Orpington and blue sapphire that I am unsure whether they are cockerels or pullets… sadly I think cockerel as they are 5 weeks in these photos. What do you think?

Are blue sapphire gems sex linked chickens?

I agree, two boys.

Is a blue sapphire the same as a sapphire gem? If so, they should be sex linked. Males are barred and females are solid blue.

Yes sorry, I think I have been saying the wrong thing. On their label it said “blue sapphire gem”. I thought they were sex linked but I wasn’t sure. Hopefully since they are, she turns out to be a pullet

I have a hen buff Orpington and a sapphire gem cockerel 6 weeks old. I'd say yours are pullets based on the tail direction going outward and no wattle formation yet. My sapphire gem has barring . I'd love to see updated pics to see what they look like now

I will try to get a picture tomorrow. I am pretty darn sure that the sapphire gem is a Pullet and the buff Orpington is a cockerel.
