These two are a little over 7 weeks! I’m hoping for all pullets, but won’t be disappointed if ones a rooster!

The black and buff bird is definitely a cockerel.

The buff Orpington is still questionable. I think you're going to have to wait a while longer on that one.

Hmm, instead of getting rid of a rooster, you could just make a separate pen for one and a few hens or just one other roo and swap them out with the hens. My friends accidentally ended up with three maybe four roosters and are just gonna make another pen for the other two. That is always an option. Good luck, having two roosters can be hard though, I learned that the hard way, hopefully its jus tone extra rooster not 2 right ! Avery

Over a month later, I’m still undecided:View attachment 2331187View attachment 2331191View attachment 2331192

Dark one is a cockerel, you can see long tapered saddles coming out from behind (towards the base of tail on the back). Its a bit hard to see but I think I see it there. The buff is hard to see..

May I ask why you rehomed him? He's has exceptional colors.

At the time, I already had 4 breeding roosters that had a really large size and traits I wanted in the offspring. He is a result of it as I hatched him plus, for me, black is a very dominant color, and I was hoping to get blue or at least orange/red based large roos to use. A new Roo I just began using fit my desires somewhat.

Good point. I'm glad you have a plan of what color and size your aiming for.

I think both cockerels.
