These guys where hatched around the 10th of June...I am thinking they are Roos but heard Buff Orpingtons are very hard to tell until they crow or lay.
I was going to keep them until one of those happened but they have an incredible opportunity to be rehomed on a big farm as early as tomorrow so I need to make a my decision now!

Pullets don't start to turn red in the comb until they are over 14 weeks old. Those two look like they've been red in the comb for a while now. If you could get some better shots of the the feathering on their backs, it will help confirm that they are males.

X 3 you really need, good, clear close ups. Even enlarging your photo we can not see them clearly enough plus hard to try and see around fencing, etc.
