I'm new to both orpingtons and wyandottes, and we had a mix of hatching eggs. These babies were born on Sept 10th.
Please help me identify orpingtons and wyandottes, gender and possibly some speculation on colors.

Orpingtons should have single combs and white shanks.
Wyandottes should have rose combs and yellow shanks.
 
I'm having trouble knowing the difference between single and rose combs at this age. I've only ever had single comb chicks/chickens before this... so I just assume the bigger combs are roosters :D
 
Can anyone help me identify what a rose comb or single comb looks like at this age, for females and males?
 
Here's one male and one female with single combs.
I think they were 19 days old here.

This is my first year with my own flock. I’m wondering why the chicks have banded legs and what you use for bands?

Thanks and especially for your patience if this is a screamingly obvious answer!
