Is this Buff Orp a rooster? (pic heavy)

Yep, thats just the last of his baby down coming out, you can pluck it out if you want, its just hanging there. Will Orps, the hens usually feather out faster and lose their down first so he is just a little slower getting in his feathers and losing his baby down.

Oh, ok, Thanks!

Do you think this one could be a rooster too? He was right next to Rusty when I was photoing him...

hmmmm the back of the comb closed to the center of the skull still looks pretty small and even, so I'd still hold onto hopes that that one is a pullet.
