Sweet Ole Wyo
I have 4 week old silver laced Wyandotte’s that are suppose to be all pullets but I’m having second thoughts about one of them.

they have a lot le white, redder comb/wattles and is a bit bigger than my other two.

A is the suspected Cockerel

B is one of my others I’m confident is a pullet.

Last photo is both of them

Let me summon @Overo Mare, the Crusher of Dreams, aka "The Destroyer".

Wyandottes can be notoriously difficult at that age and pullets often color up quicker in the comb and wattle area than we think they should. However, judging by the size of the feet and the thickness of the legs in the last picture, I would suspect that you have a pair. Cockerel on the left and the pullet on the right.
 
I don't really see anything that makes me think cockerel. Like Colt said, Wyandottes typically take longer to sex.

Post updated pics around 6-8 weeks and we'll take another look.
