Cochin Chicks - hen and roo?

[Chickenbaskets]

Hi everyone! Time to play everyone's favorite game... I have these two wonderful cochins. They are 13 weeks old and from the same bunch. I know the light grey is a rooster, but is the other a pullet? Help is greatly appreciated!

At 13 weeks, I think both are dudes.

Yeah, they're both definitely cockerels. At 13 weeks, pullets wouldn't have very much comb or wattle growth at all yet.

Thanks! Wonderful birds, but won't be able to keep them.

Are cockerels ones to get their wattles showing & comb first??

I have 8 almost 6wk old Cochins & am trying to figure out who’s who.

Generally, yes. If you make a thread for your chicks and post pictures, I and others should be able to help you out!
