Pullets or Cockerals?

[HJones]

My Buff Orpingtons are only six weeks old and I know it might be early still to tell the gender. But, what would you think by these pics?

I'd say pullets from those pics.

I think 1 roo 1 pullet...one looks a bit red and I see wattles more so that the other. Just a guess though

My guess is one hen and one roo.The one looks like it has a little bigger comb and a little pink. I think I see red wattles!

Bird on the left looks like a cockerel. That's a lot of color in the comb and it has little wattles coming in. The buff orp pullets I've had never showed much at all in the way of comb development or pinking up in the comb until they were very close to point of lay.

Thanks guys! I was thinking the same thing! Just wanted some other opinions.

Update on my Orps....

Here are some pics of my BCM's. They are approximately 6wks old. Any suggestions here.....pullets or cockerels?

Not 100% sure but #1 looks like a cockerel and #2 looks like a pullet.

The one with the brown on him looks like a cockerel to me
