Male or female

[ChickenMath10to17]

This is Mabel
I thought I had a duo of sister and brother white leghorns. But now I am thinking brothers....
Or does Mabel have the female amount of comb and wattle? The majority of my flock has pea combs so anything comb looks like male to me. It looks a shade lighter than the brother but I don't have a lot of experience.

How old are they? Leghorns have large combs anyway/develop them quicker

I have had them for 9 weeks. The farmer I got them from said they were between 3 to 5 weeks?
I would say she is smaller than my 12/13 week chicks. But she was also sick originally with eye infections.

Females.. comb isn't red and isn't overly developed for a leghorn. As City said they eventually get large red floppy combs so I say pullets

Encouraging!

This is the brother Margarine. He is a male, yes? @mrskenmore

I’m not convinced it’s a male (wait a few more weeks)

I agree... I am thinking you have two females.. but agree to wait since this is right around the time you would know

Those almost look like cornish x to me.
