Cockerel Or Pullet

[pdxkiwi2013]

Cockerel Or Pullet?
I have 2 English Lavender Pullets(hopefully). One 12 weeks, the other 14 weeks.
No idea what sex they are, but hoping hens. There are no Roos allowed in our city, and we love them.
Thank you!

As of right now, they both look like pretty hens, but it's hard to be sure. They don't seem to be growing out big and poofy like they should be as hens. Keep an eye on the one on the right, especially to make sure that it's not growing long pointed saddle feathers or neck feathers.

See the difference between their feathering? Also note that roosters will have big feet and thick legs.

Keep an eye out as the one has been picked clean in the neck so someone is picking on them but both pullets yes

For now they look like pullets. Orpingtons are a slow maturing breed and the Lavender variety is hard to sex.

At this point, they're both appearing to be pretty pullets.

Yes, and thank you. I got the LOs early last week from a breeder. Violet already was missing the feathers. They seem to be growing back nicely.
Thanks again .
