Roos or Pullets?

I would love to see pics of your mystery birds.

I would guess they are both Pullets. I have Australorps and Cochins that are a little older than yours. These look like my pullets did. In both breeds, it was very obvious by this time which were roos. They had much larger and redder combs and wattles. Our Australorp roo was also crowing already by this age. Based on my own chickens, I would guess both are pullets.

I have bantam Cochins that are about 11-12 weeks old. One of my roosters does not crow at all yet. The other has a very low, squeaky crow. I can't hear it unless I am outside. It actually reminds me of a video I saw online of a Serama roo's crow. It's very cute, but I don't know if it will get louder as he ages because these are my first chickens of this breed. I actually have a video of his little crow on my cell phone because my husband did not believe me that he was crowing. The picture on it is horrible, but you can hear him crow near the end. I will send it to my email and try to post it here tomorrow. Remind me if I forget because I do forget a lot these days!

I would love to see and hear it. I will remind you.

I am new to chickens and might not even recognize an attempt to crow. Pretty sure I haven't heard anything other than a peeping noise from any of them. But, I am not totally sure.

You will recognise an attempt to crow - trust me on this!

They are both pullets.

She looks just like my BA, that everyone is saying is female... Here's Large Marge so you can compare.

I was worried that she was a he, because she is soooo sweet, and would sit in my lap for hours if I let her. I would've been sad if we would have had to give her away.
