Roo or Hens- Lavender Orpingtons

[ltg23]

These Lavender Orpingtons were hatched 1/9. So they are still pretty young. I bought them SR, but if I have three Roos I will be devastated

1- pretty sure it’s a roo with that comb and wattles
2 & 3- they have paler smaller combs. And their wattles are hardly noticeable. But I don’t know if I’m just being hopeful.

Cockerel, too young, too young

I agree but the others wattles are still quite red

I noticed that too, especially on number 3. Still too early to be sure imo

Looking forward to your update!
I have one I purchased last week as a juvenile, still trying to gauge the age, i thought the lady said 11 weeks but he/she had all their tail feathers and part of the back plucked out, they’re very anxious and at night I have to hold it for it to fall asleep.
She sold it as a roo, but I’d like to see similar photos, thanks!
