Pullet or Cockerel?

[Hilltop Flock]

I have a group of birds who are full siblings from two hatches. Most of them are black and white barred. They’re BYMs.

Pullet or cockerel?

10 week old ^

Here are the siblings for reference:

10 week olds ^ (maybe #2 is a pullet, but I was thinking cockerel.)

14 week old ^ pretty positive is a pullet, named Belinda.

Pretty sure the first one is a cockerel. The lack of color in the comb, and small wattles is kind of throwing me, but I think it's a boy. You should post more pictures in a couple weeks though.
The other 10 week old are boys.
The 14 week old is a pullet.

Interesting, what makes you think that?

Here’s another 14 w/o full sibling who I have taken to be a cockerel.

The face color is throwing me too, bc my feeling has been cockerel from the start, but now I question it.

Yes, that's a boy. The barred 14 w/o is definitely a girl.

I don’t understand how Tom look for saddle feathers where do you look exactly??? Will that show at 6 weeks old ? I have two barred rock that I’m trying to figure out the gender. Pic 1 cockerel possible ? Pic 2 pullet ?

They're too young for saddle feathers. They should have them at around 12 weeks. You have a pair, 1-cockerel and 2-pullet
