Four 9-week old barred rocks; is one a roo?

Looks like three pullets and a roo, maybe.

Is that because of the difference in wattles and bigger comb as seen in the second to last photo, second chicken from the left?

I'm guessing all pullets based on the consistent coloring across all 4 -- cockerels have a lighter color to them -- and see the link under hte picks below for a reference photo of a 6 week old cockerel- I'll think happy pullet thoughts for you!

Here are my 2 at Day 59, both now laying eggs:

Yup that second one (left) is questionable...Wattle & Comb bigger than the other three but not very red, so it's questionable right now. Try more pics in about 2 - 3 wks.

Are you sure your pullets are laying at 59 DAYS? That's about 2 months old, kind of young yet....Anyone else?

I think she is just saying that the pic was taken at 59 days old... now they are older and laying...

You can also read it that it is a picture of a 59 day old chick. Said chick is now laying so as a reference this is what a 59 day old pullet looks like. A link is added to show what a same age BR cockerel looks like for comparison.

Ok that makes sense, I was in awe. Thanks for clearing my mind

I've been corrected, thank you.
