Girls or Boys?

The one being held is a pullet. The earliest pics don't strike me as 5 months old (very first pic in particular looks more 10-12 weeks). If you're looking at bird older than about 13 weeks, the hackle and saddle pointy rooster feathers should be visible. My advice: see the birds in person before making payment. If there's point feathers around the tail, should have comb/wattles and is a roo. Also, even partial crests: Doris day smooth = pullet. Einstein wild = roo.

Okay thank you!
Then the fluffy head could be a pullet cuz egg is probably from that one? If the other pullet from first pic is younger then she wouldn’t be laying yet…. correct?

And do you think that is a wild crest or a smooth crest on the fluffy head??
 
You're looking (in crests) for this sort of thing
