Hi! I posted about breed here recently and you guys were very helpful! Just hoping for some second or third opinions on sex. I have 2 Buffs maturing at different rates. I'm certain one is a girl, not totally sure on the other. I'm saying possible roo. All are 6 weeks old and have no red in their combs.

Buff I think is pullet. She grew her feathers in quickly and is more timid:

I'm also wondering about my EE too. Already have an EE rooster and it took a while for him to mature. But his splotchy coloring gave him away. My current EE baby has me guessing. Sweet and curious with a more boring and consistent pattern.

I agree. Also I'm not sure about EEs but I would think on the buffs by 6 or 7 weeks, males would be pretty obvious even if it wasn't 100% certain? "He" should have a bigger comb and wattles and be redder by this point. So yeah, I agree, pullete
 
Thank you all so much! Glad I won't have to re home any Roos and will have plenty more eggs to add to the basket.
