I just picked these 2 salmon faverolles up yesterday. I think they're around 2-3 weeks old. I was told they're both pullets. What do you think? The one has some darker feathers than the other. So that's the one I'm really questioning.

Look for ANY black chest feathers coming in. That is a male. Also a male comb will begin to be more obvious and pink up around 4 weeks when I had a known male (we ordered a sexed male). We also have had several female SF from 2 different sources. Females will not have any black chest feathers (maybe dark brown, but not black).
