Are these Lavender Orpingtons males? I have a couple others that I’m sure are pullets and their combs are much smaller and not as pink. They are 7 weeks old.

Only one of them in the pictures looks like a cockerel.
I was about to get rid of them because I have to many males. That one is definitely a cockerel it’s the other 3 I wasn’t sure about. Here’s a couple close up pictures. Do they still look like pullets?

These are about 13 weeks now and I’m still not convinced they are pullets lol. Their combs are a lot bigger and redder than my 2 that I’m certain are pullets. Opinions?

For comparison here are the 2 that are the same age that I’m sure are pullets.
