Hello and welcome to BYC!

I'm never sure if pic 2 is supposed to be next to or below in how it lines up on my screen.

Both of the Golden laced Wyandottes look like pullets. What is their age?

Both are definitely pullets.

Nice, the stated age confirms they are indeed pullets!

A lot of the things that *used* to indicate cockerel (for GLW specifically and in my experience).. like the poor lacing quality on the chest in pic #1 now just indicates hatchery/pet/layer quality as opposed to breeding or show quality.. Using the term "quality" loosely here for informational and discussion purposes only.

I personally love being able to tell them apart easily at a glance and appreciate the differences at least for a back yard setting. Cute little flock, gorgeous ladies!
