Pullet or Cockerel? 7 week old brahmas

They're pretty young to sex for Brahma, but neither is screaming cockerel yet! I would wait a week or two. Mine were pretty ambiguous at this age apart from early maturing cockerels :)
I’m really hoping they are pullets. They are my oldest ones so I’m excited for eggs! Would be pretty bummed if they turn out to be cockerels….. here is some more pics

I'm thinking both pullets for now but it's a bit early. I had slow to mature cockerels at this age look just like pullets. Keep an eye out on the one with lighter hackles and more red of comb :)

Thanks so much! I’m gonna try and be optimistic lol I’ll post some more pics in a couple weeks!

The one in the first pic has me slightly worried as it’s comb and waddle seem a little more red I color….the anticipation sucks haha I can’t have roosters where I live and I already know I have one. I would hate for one of my brahmas to be a cockerel cause they are an awesome breed and so nice.
