Is this a rooster? What type are they?

1 is a lot bigger than the other now. Is it a rooster? I thought they were lavender orpington.

Yep...see the shiny pointed saddle feathers?

Male. Under 1 year of age = cockerel. Over 1 year of age = rooster. He does look to be a Lavender Orp.

Lavender orps. I see 1 cockerel and 1 hen (assuming the cockerel is the same one in each picture)

 

[Bkydchickens]

Yes, so we have 2 hens and a going to be rooster. Bummer I really like him, but we cant have him noisy. Guess theres nothing we can do about the future noise.

agreed, pic two shows one of each, with the cockerel on the left.

1 is a lavender cockerel and 1 is either a blue orpington or a lavender hen.

Sorry but I agree, you have a cockerel and a pullet

Can't have crowers or......?
All chickens can be noisy.....
a group of newly laying pullets can make you shut your windows

He’s gorgeous! An Orpington was the best roo I’ve ever had. Laid-back and had the BEST crow. I’d take him off your hands in a skinny minute.
