Could any one help to tell which is rooster?

I can't quite tell the comb type from the pics. How do you sex orpingtons?
Easy. Female Orpingtons feather out faster then males.

Females and males are easily sexed at hatch, or 3 days after hatch.

Females will have an irregular wing feather growth pattern following with long primaries, & short coverts.

Males their feather buds will be all even with coverts overlapping primaries.

Most common in males if you missed the window to sex at hatch is large pinkening combs, & no tail feathers at about 3-4 weeks sometimes 5 weeks depending on bloodlines.
 
I’m confused how you are seeing their combs, Mystery. I’ve looked at the pics again, and they aren’t visible.

I attached more pics. The last two pics(with bigger wings) are from the one with pin tail feathers. The first two pics are from the one with the pin feather tails. The wing feather are obviously different....Thanks all for helping!:th
