Pullets or Cockerels?! Six Week old Araucanas

[MysteryChicken]

The other two seem to be lavender rose comb Bantams. The first one is the only Aruacana, & it does look like a cockerel based on comb size.

The first of the rose combs, looks to be a cockerel too.

I'm blind. Just reread. It seems OP already said specifically what I was asking for

I think our Araucanas are similar to the US Ameraucanas we don’t have the rumpless gene in NZ really!

Thanks! I was actually just told by the breeder that the 2&3 might be lavender Wyandotte’s o: got mixed up!

Hey all! I have three lavender Araucanas all six weeks old today. Can anyone guess the genders? The first one is huge compared, weighing in at 500grams while the other two are about 200... is this normal to be such a huge difference? Also the first one has a crest already, while the other two have none yet. Also - Will the other two still develop crests, just later on? TIA! Ps: I’m in New Zealand, so the breed standard is different for Araucanas than the US View attachment 2466774View attachment 2466775View attachment 2466776View attachment 2466778View attachment 2466779View attachment 2466780View attachment 2466781View attachment 2466782View attachment 2466783

Second and third are NOT Arucanas, and look female for now....at least 2 does.
First is male, and a real Arucana.

I just got told they are possibly Wyandotte’s and got mixed up!

Are they bantams?
I do think Wyandotte is possible.

Yes Wyandotte bantams that explains their small size!

Leg color is wrong for a Wyandotte, but it may change as the grow up.
