Buff Orpington chick pullet or ...a roo?

[JKGooch]

We got 4 new babies from the feed store about a week ago. Supposedly all pullets. The lovely Lulu seems to be growing and feathering a bit already, but she? Has a tendency to stand up tall and her tail has a suspicious curve to it. This is only my second set of chicks, so I am really not good at this. I know that there are some experts on here. We can't have a roo and my kids are alreay pretty attached. Thanks.

If you could take a pic of the front of the one on the right..... probably to young to tell, but i want to look at the comb.

It looks like it might be a roo. Don't take my word on it for sure, it just seems to have a little more comb development.

I think that the buff orpington may have a week on the americauna (or ee?) chicks. They are 2x as big. So I will keep out hope and listen for crowing and spurs.

Post another pic is a couple weeks. You could be waiting 6+months for crowing or spurs
