English Chocolate Orpingtons - What gender? 5 wks old

I see no pointy saddle feathers. How old, again???? * If 4-5 months, then I'd guess pullet too.

Here's my 5 mo old silver laced orpington male. (end May or early June hatch) Notice the pointy saddle & hackle feathers. Comb and wattles are still not large.

Here is a female from the same hatch. (my blue laced project) In contrast, you can see how she has rounded saddle feathers and a smaller lighter pink comb.
