Do spurs indicate roosters in my future?

Thank you for the input! Ha! Maybe my son needs to start thinking of a name change! Or, I might need to start looking for a new home

. Lucy is especially sweet - maybe he'll be a reasonable addition for my two hens, Henny & Penny.

The one on the top step looks like my Buff Orp hen
 
Gosh, I really had her pegged as a New Hampshire Red. To tell you the truth I don't really know. I'll have to look at some images of Buff O's.

She looks like a hatchery new hampshire (no red at the end) orpingtons have white legs and are not that orange color.

LOL must be my computer screen. (or my old eyes lol) She looks more yellow and white legged. But after I saw this I checked on my Orp and the tail is a little different too.
 
I just snapped these photos. Erza & Lucy will be 7 weeks old on Sunday, Nov 10th. I brought them home from the Fryeburg Fair. The fellow who manages the poultry barn gave them to me. He said that Lucy is an Ameracauna [/COLOR][/U]
See that third photo from the bottom where you can see the neck feathers If they are coming in long skinny and pointy then that is a sign of a rooster.
