Do you have 2? I see 2 cockerels...

I also see two cockerels.. Then again I've had pullets like that, but I don't think as big comb/beak/wattle area.

Are you sure they are orpingtons? They look like Cuckoo somethings. Where'd you get them?

From a lady who breeds them... that's what she told me there were.

Lady either mixed up what she gave you or lied to you.
I'd see if she'd take them back since they aren't what you wanted, I wouldn't mention that they're boys.

Both are cockerels and looks like they came from an Orp project pen. I have no idea what they're split to, but they are barred and not lavender.

Yeah they look like Barred or cuckoo.

She had a black orpington and a lavender.. I guess they mated? But I agree they look like barred. I have 2 lavender as well.
