Just a couple pics taken while admiring birds this afternoon...

Golden Crele in front, Cream in back...according to local breeder.
I am not concerned with the SOP's, got them for making OE's.

It's weird, this pullets comb has been very large and red for a few weeks, way beyond her 'sisters'. Her points are spreading and I think I spooked her off the nest the other day, thought it was the hen who is tolerant of grabbing eggs from under her.
Pullet patrol is frustrating as the days shorten so quickly...
.....will they go or wait until after solstice??

These 4 all hatched at the same time. One is still very pale and small in the comb and wattles. I suspect the faster developing ones are the ones that the rooster has his way with. :D
I’m going to try to observe the mating activity.

Are my cream Legbars too golden? Are they called something else? Also, I’ve read that they began to lay at 24 weeks, and they’re 15 weeks old now, and my friends who i got them off said they’ll lay in October?

Those pullets are not close to laying at all. Their Combs will swell and turn red to indicate they are ready to lay eggs a week or two before they start. If they have too much gold, they would be considered golden crele legbars, which is a slight variation of cream legbars.
