Roo or not?

[GamingGopher]

These are my chicks:
Are they roo or pullet? They are 8 weeks old, black and white are kind of crowing... can that be a pullet?

Many thanks

8 weeks old ? If so they are cockerels.

At 8 weeks, those are all cockerels.

Ok, what gives it away??

Those combs and wattles are absolutely massive for 8 weeks. There are some breeds where the mature hens have larger combs and wattles, but an 8 week old pullet would not have anywhere near that kind of comb/wattle for those breeds. 100% those are cockerels.

All boys. Mostly it's the big bright red combs and wattle that give it away, but the two black and whites are double barred which is a male trait.

Those are some beautiful large red combs and wattles.

Not nearly as small as a pullets would be. He also has a male specific feather pattern.

Ok, is there like a 1% chance that you could still be a pullet??
