Hi all! I’ve been told by a few people that these are both Roos. As they’ve gotten a few weeks older one has a more distinct meaning comb and wattles, while the other doesn’t. Any thoughts? I only have a straight on shot of the one with a large comb, but front and back of the other.
thanks for your insights!

Ages?
 
I have Black lavender Orpingtons and mine are all pullets. I have three. I will attach their pics if I can. I’m not sure if I have some good close ups of their combs and waddles but they are currently 18! Weeks old and I know their sexes for sure. Hens. I believe yours are all hens as well. They are very slow to grow their combs and waddles. In these pic just blow them up or rather expand them and you can see them very well at different ages and up till now. I took the one of them at night on the roost last week. You will surely be able to make a good determination about your chicks I would bet.
