Golden Wyandotte Chicks? Need help ID'ing and sexing two chicks

[robtiide]

Hey ya'll,

We were under the impression that we purchased 3 Barr Rock baby chicks from TSC. There was an issue with one of their brooders so they had to shuffle chicks around and therefore all the signage didn't make it to the corresponding chicks. By order of elimination we felt that they were the Barr Rock chicks, but now think we have gotten Golden Laced Wyandotte Chickens. They were sold as a straight-run.

Now that its almost week 4, we are noticing that 2/3 (Chick A in Picture) of the chicks are almost identical in size and growth and the other 1 (Chick B in Picture) is much larger that the 2.

Were assuming that either 1 is a rooster or 2 are a rooster.

Being that this is the first go at chickens for us, I'm gonna leave it to you experts and am hoping that we can have a better idea of where we stand.

Thank you!!

Could you get some pictures without the red light please?

It's just hard to see comb coloring with the red light. But my first impression is:

#1- pullet
#2- cockerel

Do appear to be gold laced wyandotte.
Ya won't guess sex with them under the red light.

I added some to the original post and below. Thanks for your help!

Too young to say. Wyandottes sometimes take a bit longer to show their sex. Post updated pics at 6-8 weeks.

Getting the impression B is a cockerel, got nothing to base it off except my gut- and that’s not a way to sex chicks lol.

They are still too young for accurate gender ID.
