French Black Copper Maran, ordered as Pullet, looks like Cockerel. Would like your opinions please?!

How did they turn out?

My Maran turned out to be a pullet with huge red comb, & wattles. Looks like a roosters head on a pullets body.

The Welsummer looks like a welsummer cockerel like I suspected. He had a hip injury that healed awkwardly.

BCM have huge combs, even the hens. Gets people every time. Congatulations on your girl. Should be getting those gorgeous chocolate brown eggs in a few months!

She's 6 months old already, & haven't gotten any eggs yet. How long do they usually take?

She can go 8 months easy. Don't worry, worth the wait!

White lobes.. are you sure Welsummer? I don't think shank color is correct either., for stated breed.

I ordered a welsummer pullet, but it turned out to be a cockerel. Are you sure the color of the earlobes you are seeing isn't due to the light glare?

His legs are a pale yellow, not the typical dark yellow.
