Help me sex my Plymouth Barred Rocks.

Your barred rocks are pullets.

The buff orp on the right I can see being a cockeral, esp with that shading on the wings. I'm not seeing anything rooish about the other one, but throw a pic up and let us have a look.


I don't even try to sex silkies. As far as I'm concerned, it's crow or egg with them lol.
Donrae: Here are some pictures of my buff orps. Oh and both of my silkies began crowing, when I let them out the coop this morning at 5:30a. So that means def roos, right??? :(

Thanks for all your help guys!!!


 
Thanks--that's a nice shot of the bird in question. Ya know, I just can't say pullet! The comb and wattles definately look pullet, but I think I see hackle feathers, and shading on the wing bow. The legs are thinner, though..........huh. Probably a pullet, but maybe you could re post in a month or so and let us know?
 
the bo: left is a pullet right is a cockerel (although the pullet does look like a cockerel in certain pics)
the br: both are pullets
the silkies: at this age the comb on a cockerel will be larger and the cockerels will have streamers (if they are crowing then yes they are cockerels)
