We bought this Buff Orp and they said that they were all 14 wk old pullets. The beginning-to-grow long tail feathers and large comb and wattles(for 14 wks) are making me begin to doubt though

We haven't heard any crowing, though.

The comb starting to turn red is perfectly normal for a 14 week old pullet. It means that her body is getting ready to start producing eggs. I don't see anything that indicates that this bird is a cockerel.
 
Ok! Thanks a bunch! I'm not as familiar with Orps, and she doesn't seem to be developing any spurs, so that's good! Thanks again!
