Cockerels or Pullets

[gagirl02]

I'm no expert but I am fairly certain that image number 906 and 914 are roos. You can definitely see a much more developed comb and wattle on those two, and that is usually a pretty good indicator. Especially if they are all the same age. Also, why do some have pink feet and others have black? Are they mixes or just random genetics? I am super unfamiliar but very curious

Thank you for helping. Do you agree that the other 4 are pullets, for sure? As far as their legs, I don't know. They are dark gray legs and whitish pink legs. I was told they were orpingtons and americanas. But someone else on here says they aren't americanas at all. I'm so confused about these chicks now.

Not an expert, just look at a lot of chick pics, lol.

Compared with my pullets around the same age, 914 is a cockerel, 906 probably is, and the rest look like pullets. All beautiful birds I hope to get some lavender orps in the spring!

Thank you. I'm so glad I finished with 4 pullets. I was afraid I didn't have any.

Ameraucana will have a pea comb. Yours are all Orpingtons. I believe the first is a rooster though I would wait for a crow personally. In my experience with lavender Orpingtons the females can develop bigger combs early. I believe the fifth one is a rooster as well. That one I'm a bit more certain on. The rest are pullets.

#1 and #6 (going off the picture order) appear to be your definite cockerels. It's entirely possible there are a couple others, since the breed is notoriously slow to mature.
In total agreement with above statements, they're all Orpingtons. No Ameraucanas in the bunch posted.
