I hatched 4 Lavendar Orpingtons before having a clue about sexing.
They are 5 months old.
I think I have 3 Roos and 1 hen.
I am devastated. I love them and wanted only 1 rooster, ofcourse.
I notice the combs and also the one with less tail feathers and hers (?) point downwards and are blunt.

Thanks for your help. If I do have 3, I will be looking to trade 2 gorgeous Roosters for an unrelated hen.
These jokers were fed good and their size shows it LOL

I think you have 3 cockerels too. Have you thought about having a bachelor pad? I have possibly 3 young cockerels too this year and that's what I'm going to do. Mine are 2 lavender orpingtons and one buff orpington. Luckily one of my lavenders is a pullet. But, 3 out of 4 isn't great odds, is it. I wanted a cockerel, but 3?

And BTW, welcome to BYC!

Wont they fight? They dont now...but when they grow up?? I like the idea of 1 rooster per 4 or 5 hens. I dont let them innerbreed I ha e Barred Rocks this way, too.

Thanks for helping!! :frow
