Gender on my two 1.5 mo old Sultans

[aubreynoramarie]

As someone who has had chickens long enough now to tell the sex of a chick at this age, i would be pretty confident that these were both roosters. But because they both look very different to me, i was hoping to get some input from people who have actually raised sultan chicks before...

chick #1
Smaller head poof, smaller body, redder comb, more bumps on comb and beak

chick#2
larger poof, muffs, and body. same sized legs, smoother comb but still reddish pink. both chicks are the most skittish in the brooder

thanks all! i almost sold them this morning but hesitated because im just not 100%
these are the only two sultans i have or have ever had so i have no females or males to compare them to

ETA:
both combs are much redder than the pictures show (?) especially up at the top. chick one has bumps on its beak that are pink

Sorry I cant help you but HOLY COW how many toes does he have?!?

sorry i have no clue on their sex but i would guess you have a pair...sultans should have 5 toes

I only have one Sultan and she's a pullet so take this for what its worth, but they both look like boys to me.....

CUUUUUUUUTE! Thanks for showing pics of them! I have in my incubator, 11 sultan banty eggs as well. I have never seen one in person and am very looking forward to hatch time! So exciting! Got a dozen of these little white eggers from ebay and all but one are very much alive. I think they are the most beautiful chicken.
