Hens or Roo's

[Gotalotofpetstoo]

We got these 2 about a week ago. We were told they were 4.5 months old Roo's, 1 a Buff Orphington and the other a Black Copper Maran X. I haven't heard either of them crow yet, but I guess it could still be early for that?

The Marans X (looks part EE) is a cockerel. Can you post more pics of the BO? Not seeing anything that screams cockerel just from that picture.

Yeah, he's a cockerel too.

You may just have a pair of late bloomers. I've had cockerels not crow until they were over 5 months old. If you have any older roosters with them that's another possibility why they may not crow yet.

No other roosters, so we'll just give them some time to mature. Thanks
