I"m not seeing anything screaming cockerel at this point. Orpingtons can be slower to mature, but there's usually a larger comb by now. I'm not sure what breed the white bird is, but it also looks like a pullet.

woooohooooo...that could be great news!!!!!!!......these eggs came from.....barred rock.... rhode island reds.... and buff orpingtons....there are several of each...so they can be mixed together with the 3 breeds...the white one did stump me...maybe its an albino! i am hoping i get some girls!!!...i have my fingers crossed...
