They are definitely beautiful. I wish I would of gotten some last year.

I'm still holding out for 3 and 4 to be girls. Maybe the photos don't do them justice, but they are quite different from the others. The combs are smaller and pinker than the others, the saddle feathers are rounder and cover more of the tail, and their butts seem to be fluffier. Not to mention they behave differently than the others. But maybe I'm wrong?

I'll wait for eggs and let you know for sure.

I have buff orps almost the same age, I have one roo that looks like all of your first ones. My pullets have hardly any comb or wattle development like your last picture. I vote with everyone else, all roos except the last one.

Disclaimer: at this point in my poultry-ism, I have no clue what Im talking about.
