Hopefully these help! I have no idea how Orpingtons or 'Wyandottes' (thank you for letting me know that!) feather out. The Orp/Wyandotte are just a day younger than my mutt, as well.

The last time I raised chicks, their tail feathers gave it away, and it looks like the 'Splash Wyandotte' is the only pullet with that full set of tail feathers. But every breed feathers differently, and the little chocolate orp is taking its sweet time.

The only one that looks like a roo, is the one orange/red one in the first pic near the black one. and its in a few other pics
 
@sassysarah123 would you help me figure out if i have pullets or cockerels? 10 weeks old. One is a Barred Rock and the other one is a silver laced Wyandotte. I hope for pullets. I can't have roos. Thanks!
All look like pullets.
Hey...
So I believe this cuckoo maran is a roo even though it was supposed to be a hen? He/she is 16 weeks.

The second is a red/blue laced wyandotte who is about 14 or 15 weeks. I'm also afraid she's a roo?

And lastly...is my speckled sussex also 16 weeksView attachment 1049268 View attachment 1049272 View attachment 1049274 . I think hen?

Thank you in advance for checking out my birds.

This is a Cochin bantam frizzle. I don't even know how old it is. I was wondering if anyone can tell if it's a roo. Thank you !
Rooster.
Well, I already have my suspicions about this one, but I just want to see what you guys say (always good to hear different opinions from different people). It's a mixed breed that's about 11 weeks in the pictures:

The breeder said she was pretty much certain it was a pullet. (we got it when it was 4 weeks old)
I'm not sure, Please post pics of saddle feathers. I'm leaning towards roo though.
 
I think the one closest to the camera is a rooster your thoughts?

Hi there! This is our 10 week old Buff Orpington. Sold as a pullet; and understanding that a mix up can occur...can you help confirm that she is a rooster? We will have to rehome Clementine/Clem if that was the case
